Rivö Bag comprises a bottom that is worked in the round, as a tube. This continues into the handle. The tube is pressed flat, and stitches are then picked up along the two edges, forming the sides of the bag. The sides are then formed with decreases, creating the crescent shape of the bag. Finally, the top of the bag and the strap are worked, and the lining and zipper are mounted.
