bags I am making with plarn

This is what the bags will look like when they are done. this prototype I made out of yarn because I could rip it out if I needed to. plastic does not rip out very easy, yarn is much more forgiving. Now I have my pattern and will start making these with plarn. I have posted the pattern in my etsy store, My user name is 33craft. come and look me up.

what? your safeway bags are brown?!?!

[33crafty]

@cucumberpotato They used to be. They are white now. I do have a friend that saves me green and another that saves me yellow. and in October Haggan's (local grocery store) has pink bags. I am always on the look out for colored bag though. I have all of the teen's that I know save me the small colorful bags that they get when they go to the mall. I almost have enough to make a rainbow bag.

@Treasures4Food I am making mats for the homeless, and I WISH THERE WERE MORE colors also. But I dont know where to shop to get pretty bags. Good luck ! I love Etsy.I make jewelry but I am afraid to commit to make soo much to keep up with Etsy.

Hi -- I also craft with plarn and love all the different things you can do with it. I've cheated for specific projects and bought bags at the store -- often you can get scented bags in pink and blue. Black crochet'd bags feel like leather :) For additional splashes of color -- I've dabbled with plastic table cloths which come in a multitude of colors. Best of luck to you!!!

Hi Lori,

If you have lots of white bags add some yarn while you crochet them for color. Hope it works for you,

God Bless,

Petra
