That is cute! So I am taking it that you cut down the center of the cut bottle of the tube to get the opening right?

yep down the centre and cut a bit more off the centre that joined so it opens better.

If you want a bit larger bag, Dollar Tree sales 3 litre bottles of soda. I have one empty now so I'm going to make one. Thank you for sharing this pattern.

 

I made a bag yesterday to hold a small ball of yarn out of a plastic quart size milk bottle. I cut off the top of it then punched holes around the top and crocheted into them. I have a pup that likes to grab my yarn while I crochet so figured that would keep it away from her.

Good idea! I'll be thinking about ways to use this concept myself, I'd certainly never considered it before.
