Recycled Plastic Bags Never Looked So Good!

Quite a while back I posted a link for crochet plastic items. Unfortunately, the available of recycling plastic bag in pleasing colors seems to be lost in the L/A area. All I could find were the white or tan bags with an occasional yellow bag (Dollar General).

Imagine my surprise when Mom came home today from shopping--and toting a beautiful shade of blue plastic bags from Hannaford. Finally, some color that would be perfect to make a crocheted grocery bag! I guess I will have to "forget" my recycled grocery bags for several weeks to get enough to make the plarn (the name for plastic yarn) to make my own bag.

Here is a link from the Canadian Living blog you might want to give a try. If you have one you have made in the past, please email me a photo so we can post it on the boards.
