An attachable and detachable handgrip, primarily used with plastic bags, canvas bags and other items with handles, is disclosed. The attachable handgrip comprises a single piece of flat, pliable material that will hold its shape, yet yield easily to force. The material is rolled upon itself to form a spiral structure. Once formed, the handgrip is attached to the bag handles by placing the bag handles in the longitudinal slit formed along an edge of the spiral structure and rotating the spiral structure until the bag handles are within the spiral structure.

What is claimed: 1. An apparatus for carrying one or more items, each of said one or more items having a handle, the apparatus comprising: a sheet having a first edge and a second edge, a longitudinal crimp proximal to said first edge for engaging said handles of said one or more items, wherein said first edge is adapted to be rolled upon itself towards said second edge, while said handles of said one or more items are engaged by said longitudinal crimp, to form a spiral structure with said first edge extending along the substantially central axis of said spiral structure, said spiral structure comprising a plurality of spiral turnings spaced apart from one another, and wherein the diameter of said spiral structure is decreased by increasing the number of said spiral turnings. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said sheet is made of a pliable material. 3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein said pliable material is paperboard. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said second edge is rounded at its proximal and distal ends. 5. A method for transporting one or more items, each of said one or more items having a handle, the method comprising: providing a flexible sheet having a first edge and a second edge, wherein said flexible sheet comprises a longitudinal crimp proximal to said first edge; engaging said handles of said one or more items with said longitudinal crimp; rolling said first edge upon itself, while said handles of said one or more items are engaged by said longitudinal crimp, towards said second edge to form a spiral structure with said first edge extending along the substantially central axis of said spiral structure, said spiral structure comprising a plurality of spiral turnings spaced apart from one another; and decreasing the diameter of said spiral structure by increasing the number of said spiral turnings. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising the step of unrolling said second edge away from said first edge until said sheet forms a generally planar configuration to allow for release of said handles. 7. The method of claim 5, further comprising the step of pulling on said second edge while holding onto said handles of said one or more items to allow for release of said handles.
