After crocheting a bag, you need to create a handle that won't be too stretchy. My preferred method is TSS (Tunisian Simple Stitch) or TKS (Tunisian Knit Stitch). This video shows the TSS method. You don't need a special crochet hook for this because your strap won't be too wide. If you want a wider strap you may need to use a hook that doesn't have ergonomic rubber on it.
These instructions can also be found at the end of my tutorial on doing mosaic crochet in the round. The bag uses my Tumbling Curls pattern; find more information about that Crochet-A-Long here: ashleeslint.co...
You can add a Tunisian strap to your bag even if you haven't used a mosaic colorwork technique. The strap does stretch slightly - it's just not as stretchy as the mosaic crochet section.
