Turn plastic shopping bags into “plarn” to weave up this durable market bag. Not only will you feel good about your environmental impact, but you’ll look good, too.
Recycle your plastic shopping bag stash and create a new farmer’s market tote at the same time! Strips of plastic bags (aka plarn) are woven with cotton carpet warp to create a shockingly sophisticated bag that will have everyone at the market wishing they had one for themselves.
Combine light and lacy leno with plain weave to create a stylish bag that only looks delicate. The easy-to-weave leno gives the bag its lighter-than-air appearance, while the plain weave keeps things durable.
