Or if you're lazy or untalented, you can buy one on Amazon for $5.

I've seen similar net bags. It's not a handbag. It's a tote or shopping bag. This one is a dressy version of the net bags I saw European woman carry.

I can see a use for this bag for purchasing produce particularly at open air markets. For a purse...just not practical.

What??? That is just plain ole ugly! Looks like they tried to give an old time net shopping bag an upgrade to make it look more stylish --- No --- it's a fail!
