You Will Need (1 thing)

Steps (8 steps, 10 minutes)

1. 1

   Take a plastic bag and lay it flat on the ground. Make sure you get all the air out.

2. 2

   Fold bag in half and then in half again.

3. 3

   Cut off bottom of bag and handles. Cut bag into approximately one inch strips.

4. 4

   You should have a bunch of strips that look like this.

5. 5

   This part is kind of hard to explain with a picture, but I'll try...
   Pull apart all of the little pieces that you cut and overlap two pieces and pull to chain them together.

6. 6

   You should pull so that you end up with a tight knot.

7. 7

   After stringing a few bags together you will have a really long string of plastic yarn.

8. 8

   Roll plastic yarn into a ball and start crocheting! You can treat this just as you would any other yarn.
