Weave cording through the unused front loops on row 11. Space them evenly - I think I ran it through every 20th or 21st stitch. Tie with the ends together with a bow. Now with your carrier laying flat on a table, pull the cording through so that all the "loops" that will make the handles are approximately the same length. Place your casserole dish in the middle, grab up all the handles and you're ready to go!
