The Simple Things

TO MAKE A CARRY STRAP

-

1 Roll up the windbreak and measure its circumfere­nce, including the broom handles (step E).

2 Using the leftover fabric, cut two strips of fabric to go around the circumfere­nce, and another strip 1–1.5m long to make a shoulder strap.

3 With your short strips, make two slide-on loops and with the fabric right sides facing, stitch the ends together.

4 Turn them the right way round and check they fit before continuing.

5 Pin each end of the long shoulder strap to the centre of each loop (step G).

6 Top-stitch it down and slip onto your windbreak, ready to carry to the beach (step H).
