I made a bag out of plastic bags. #plarn #crochet
I saw a video on #plarn about ten years ago and I've been hoarding plastic bags ever since waiting until I had the will to learn to #crochet. It is time. I'm making a bath mat. It's actually really nice and cushy.

Me most of June: "I need to find a small hamper for the washcloths and rags I tend to wash separately from most of my other laundry... I'll ask my husband his thoughts on spacing and see if he can grab one..."

Me today: "Oh, wait, I have #crochet -ed a small and large basket out of old grocery bag #Plarn and can use one for the washcloths/towels and the other for my hand-knit socks... thus making for easier "chuck this in and go" laundry pre-sorting.

Today’s morning doodle: I made a market bag out of #plarn to ascertain if I really do hate working with plarn or if I was just undergaguing and torturing my joints. Damn it. This was fun to make. I am not getting that craft storage space back after all. Oh well. I guess today is a plarn organizing day. #crochet #upcycle

The larger crocheted basket with two handles made with chunky Plarn (Plastic Yarn) made out of old Kroger grocery bags. The pattern is Chunky Crochet Basket by Elizabeth Pardue as featured in the Crochet in Color blog.

This and the smaller basket will go along with the orange-and-white washcloths to make a complete gift-set for when I need a random gift (housewarming, bat mitzvah, someone gave me a gift I didn't expect, etc.)

Acabo de descubrir que existe el #plarn y ha explotado mi mente. Ahora ya sé que hacer con tantas bolsas de plastico!

#crochet

#introduction - i guess I'll keep doing this?

I read/listen to things abt #cults & #urbanlegends - I'm curious about #belief but not looking for #religion. (I'm #exchurchofchrist deconstructed/ #formerchristian). I do read about religion. A lot.

Other stuff:
#crossstitch - a bit stuck on a pattern of #godzilla.

#crochet - with yarn - i used #plarn for a bit to make tote bags out of used plastic bags

#drawing (badly)

#postcrossing - i like to send/ receive mail from strangers

yeah hey what's up utoob today we're going to be coping with several kinds of grief by trying yet another method to make #plarn
today we're doing kumihimo, which, I learned as "lanyards" in girl scouts.

For #sunDIY I wanted to post more #plarn (plastic yarn) adventures, but I haven't gotten my paws on bigger #crochet hooks yet. I'm trying to avoid going straight to the big box stores to buy them and ask around free/trade groups and check out secondhand shops first. I miss the instant gratification, but it'd be so much nicer to give a home to someone's neglected supplies!

My first intended project is a netted produce bag, but I should maybe start with something smaller first.
