Plarn Bottle Tote/Bag

wine bottle tote/bag made out of plastic bags

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/plarn-bottle-totebag • Posted by happyplarner

I am a beginner in crocheting, and I specialized in working with plarn (since there's so many wasted plastic bags around here). You will need to know how to make plarn/plastic yarn, which you can easily google up,as well as how to do chain stitch, slip stitch, single stitch and how to increase. This bag was inspired by the farmer's market shopping bag idea/pattern featured in: http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2007/07/03/crocheted-plarn-tote-bag/ and http://www.etsy.com/storque/how-to/how-tuesday-how-to-make-plarn-crochet-an-eco-friendly-tote-b-7773/ The difference is instead of making a rectangular base like shown in both of the tutorials above, this bottle bag has a round base. Perfect for gifts :)
