Instructions here- http://frugalliving.tqn.com/library/blpcrochet.htm and some links with ideas and paterns http://www.kaleidesigns.com/crochet/help.html http://www.thefamily.com/countrycottage/crochet/beachbag.html http://shonasplace.greycastle.net/Crochet/Patterns/misc.html http://www.knitting-crochet.com/crochet/plabag.html http://community-2.webtv.net/spclk83/Informationon/ http://home.inreach.com/marthac/plastic.html http://frugalliving.miningco.com/library/blpcrochet.htm http://community-2.webtv.net/spclk83/PlasticBagCrafts/ by looking i think you can make anything just tie the bag strips like yarn sunshine 12-24-2002, 02:14 PM I've done this with plastic grocery bags, bread wrappers, dry cleaning bags. I just cut the bags in a spiral- about 1/2 to 1 inch wide. Then crochet as usual with a large hook. I've found that rugs, bags, and so on work up the best. The plastic bags tend to make the items stiff. cody15650 12-26-2002, 08:07 AM Thank you for all the links! Can't wait to get started now. :) :paw: |
