ABSTRACT:
The present invention entails a method and apparatus for handling tobacco wherein a sheet is provided with sleeves formed in opposite corners thereof with the other two corners of the sheet being left with free corner ends. Once tobacco or other bulk material is placed on the sheet then the free corner ends are threaded through respective sleeves and then tied into a suitable knot thereby forming a sheet-like container bound around the tobacco or other material. Thereafter, the package or containerized material can be handled and even lifted by grasping the free end knot.
