Free Granny Square Motif Bag - Recycled Plastic Bags

[RecycleCindy]

I just finished my first Granny Square Motif Bag made completely out of recycled plastic bags. It's about 9 inches square with a 17 inch strap handle. I just got the instructions down so I thought I'd share it with you. The link is http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2007/02/10/free-granny-square-bag-pattern-recycled-plastic-bags/

 

 

It's free to everyone. If you have any questions, please contact me. I found that it was easier on my hands so for anyone out there that has had problems crocheting with the plastic bag yarn, you might want to try this pattern. I made this a small purse bag but you could easily add more rounds to make it a tote sized bag.

 

Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing, I had never heard of doing this before. Guess you can crochet with just about anything. I will have to try this.

What a great way to recycle those plastic bags that are always cropping up.
