After that, I began focusing on the part that hangs off. Here, I ran into the problem again of not knowing how much room to leave in between for the index to pinky fingers to sit. Because everyone's finger sizes are different, I decided to make that part a duck head instead, where it would have the same function as what was intended, but removes the need for a part that would wrap around the index to pinky fingers. This part can keep the umbrella more upright and sturdy especially when dealing with wind. It also allows gravity to do some of the work for you in terms of keeping the umbrella up, so you can loosen your grip just focusing on keeping the umbrella balanced and upright, and let gravity do the rest of the work for you. Making the handle into a character would also add to the aesthetic value of the handle.
