How do you move from a solid bag base to mesh sides?
Move from a solid base to mesh sides by finishing the base's last increase round, then working one round even to set the edge, and starting the mesh with a pattern such as double crochet, chain one, skip one. Keeping the stitch count divisible by the mesh repeat avoids a skewed column.
