This is how I turn plastic shopping bags into "plastic yarn" and crochet them into a reusable shopping bag!

    You probably could, but I'd try to use a wooden needle. Otherwise it will probably want to slide off.

    You could get some old plastic knitting needles and rough them up a bit with a fine grit sand paper so the plastic bag "yarn" wont slide off.
