Plastic bag bag instructions

I used this method for cutting the bags. A crochet pattern accompanies this link, but I used my own. You can also use the "spiral" method for cutting. This link has a knit pattern, too.

For the bag in this photo, I used 75 - 100 bags and a size Q crochet hook.


*I tend to crochet "freehand," so I apologize for the vagueness of this pattern.*

For the body:
Chain 16*
Double crochet one long piece until double the length of the bag you want
Fold in half and sew up sides with mattress stitch or single crochet

For the handle:
Chain 20*
Double crochet one row
Attach on either side of the body at seams
Turn inside out and TADA!

Have fun recycling.
