be careful what you ask for!
YIKES!
I recently shared my idea with my coworkers about crocheting tote bags out of plastic grocery bags. This is what they brought to me, and this was only from 3 girls!

Making the plastic yarn
It makes it much easier to make the "yarn" if you use a cutting mat , clear grid ruler, and rotary cutter.
Stack the bags and flatten them on the mat.
Remove the top part with the handles, and the bottom edges.
Cut the bags into about 1" strips.
They will be big circles like this.
Insert one circle inside the other ,
Then make a knot
Keep tieing and roll them into a ball . I separated mine into colors to be able to make stripes on my bags.
Later I will post a picture and tutorial for crocheting the bag.

Camera used for pictures is my new Kodak Z981
I am very much enjoying my Kodak Z981
Learning how to use all the modes and settings has been fun.
These first few pictures are at the pond across the street from our house. Hope they are being enjoyed by you as much as I enjoyed taking them.
