Abstract
A grip for an umbrella is provided on an outer wall with a through hole; at least one annular groove having a start point communicating with the through hole and a terminal point; a hook located at the terminal point of the groove; and an elastic strap having an inner end pressing against an inner side of the through hole, and an outer end outward extended through the through hole to form a loop portion having a turning section. The elastic strap could be wound around the groove with the turning section engaged with the hook, and is therefore prevented from tangling other articles in a container holding the umbrella that is not in use. Or, the elastic strap may be extended through a closed item with the turning section engaged with the hook to thereby externally hang the umbrella not in use to the closed item.
