Abstract

A sling-bottom carrier adapted to carry long-necked beverage bottles. The carrier has an upper panel and a center partition with transverse cell-forming partitions. The center partition has a handle opening near the top and the top panel has a handle access opening overlying the center partition. A flap covering the access opening is folded down in use to allow a user to reach the handle opening. The front, back, bottom and top panels are formed from a continuous integral sheet, and the center partition sections of the carrier blank are on the same side of the sheet, thereby minimizing the amount of material needed. A reinforcing section makes the handle area in the center partition of triple thickness.
