I saw a clip on the news about a lady that crocheted carrying bags for groceries etc. from used plastic Safeway bags. Would anyone know how this is done.

Great idea. I started making a plastic bag rug to use as a doormat years ago, and never finished it because it seemed to take forever. I guess the large M hook makes it a quick project.

Hi, am saving my bags to make one myself.

Try this site:

www.myrecycledbags.com

there are lots of idea's and lots of photos.

Also, if you google "plastic bag yarn"
you can click onto the

goosflesh/plasticbagyarn site.

There are detailed pics on how to fold, cut and join the bags.

Hope this helps
Fickle
