I'm an ambulatory wheelchair user, I use the Karma-ERGO LITE Ultra-Lightweight Folding Transport Wheelchair and realized that I needed more places to put my belongings and shopping. The solution is POUCH Wheelchair Accessories that improve the user experience, sustainable, shared, modular and accessible. These instructions show you how to make the Molle system and have links to the Molle and shopping bags.
