1. A multi-purpose carrier comprising:
- a. a single continuous sheet with a top and bottom side folded along a central horizontal axis of the sheet to create a top end, opposing left and right open ends and a closed bottom end and a left and right side folded towards a central vertical axis of the sheet to create opposing side walls with a channel at an outer edge of the each of the side walls;
b. a plurality of slots along the outer edge of the channels; and
c. a pair of opposing torsion springs;
wherein a positive compression grip of an item inserted in the carrier is created by inserting a first spring of the pair of opposing torsion springs through the channel at the outer edge of a first side wall at the closed bottom end of the carrier and inserting a second spring of the pair of opposing torsion springs through the channel at the outer edge of the opposing second side wall at the closed bottom end of the carrier to force the opposing side walls towards each other.

Abstract
A multi-purpose carrier constructed from single continuous sheet of material that is folded along a horizontal axis or a vertical axis in a manner so as to create opposing open top ends and a closed or open bottom end. The opposing left and right sides are folded towards the vertical or horizontal axis in the center of the sheet of material to create opposing left and right channels. The channels have a plurality of apertures located along the outer edge of the channels. A cord or torsion spring is funneled through the channels and apertures to compress the opposing sides of the device together to create a positive compression grip of the contents carried in the carrier.
