Knitting with plastic shopping bags



This little bag is knitted from plastic shopping bags - cut into strips, looped together and used as yarn. The bag is knitted on a French loom. Check out this link to see how to do it. Atomic Shrimp

  1. This is a great idea. You could make really good waterproof beach bags with this method.

  4. Er... pardon me, but if it's knitted won't there be holes. To make it into a waterproof beach bag, you'd have to line it with an un-knitted plastic bag.
