Bag is made from a rectangle, worked back and forth in rows.
Yarn color is changed following Chart to form "Trick or Treat" message on front of Bag. Each box on Chart represents one single crochet (sc) worked with the indicated yarn. Read RS rows of Chart from right to left and WS rows from left to right.
Rectangle is folded in half and side seams sewn, leaving top edge open.
A single strand of yarn A is used. When working with B, hold 2 strands of B tog.
To change yarn color, work the last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete st. Proceed with new color. When working Chart, do not cut old color. Carry yarn color not in use along tops of sts of previous row and work current sts over the top of the carried strand.
Handles are made from cotton cord. The cord is attached to the top of Bag by crocheting over the top of cord and into sts of top edge of Bag.

BAG:
With a single strand of A, ch 32.
Row 1 (RS): Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across - you will have 31 sc in this row.
Rows 2-25: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across.
Row 26: Ch 1, turn sc in each st across changing yarn color following Row 26 of Chart. Note: When working with B, hold 2 strands of B tog.
Rows 27-48: Continue to work in rows of sc changing yarn color following Chart until all rows of Chart have been completed.
Fasten off.

FINISHING:
Fold piece in half, bringing RS tog, matching sts of first and last rows at top and matching ends of rows along both side edges. Sew side edges tog. Leave top edge open.

HANDLES:
Lay Bag flat. Place 2 markers on top edge of front and 2 markers on top edge of back, about 3 1/2in from top corners, leaving about 8in between markers on front and on back.
With 2 strands of B held tog, draw up a loop in one top corner, ch 1.
Leaving a 1 in. (2.5 cm) tail, lay cord along top edge of bag.
Sc over top of cord and into sts along top edge of Bag to first marker.
