Step by step:

Decide the final size you want for the handbag and draw a rectangle of that size on the paper. This will be your pattern.

Fold the fabric in half and place the pattern on top, add 1 cm to the total size. Then, cut out the rectangle.

The lower part is the one that corresponds to the fold of the fabric, so you’ll only have to sew the sides. In this way you already have the base of the bag.

With t-shirt yarn make a chain long enough to cover the entire bag. Sew or glue the chain on the bag, you can do it horizontally or vertically, it all depends on your tastes.

Add the zipper and use a chain to make the strap, in this way you already have a t-shirt yarn handbag.
