Wow, it was a great idea of doing the bag with plastic bags. Love to give them a try in my channel. Easy to follow the steps of doing them.

It actually wasn't near as tedious as I thought it would be. The bags are pretty quick and easy to work up, too!

They are still very plentiful where I live. I’m not sure that’s a good thing though.

doing a fashion project with 100 percent recycled materials!! wondering, how scratchy is the final crocheted product? because I'm wanting to make a shrug out of this but i don't want it to be scratchy on the arms basically my plan is a cropped shrug out of plarn, a corset style top from newspaper and old sheets, a patch denim pencil skirt from recycled jeans, a sewn tote bag from old sheets and brown paper bags, and I've already made platform sandals from tire rubber and cardboard (with padding ofc) i just want to make sure the shrug would be comfortable. thank you so so so so much for this tutorial!!!

That’s quite the undertaking! I don’t think the plastic shrug will be scratchy, but it is more of a dense material once you crochet it. I say “go for it”! Would love to see pics of your finished project!

Please post a video or pictures of the finished project when you are done! It sounds super interesting

Another thing to remember with plarn coasters... It's PLASTIC, so don't set very hot things on it, or it will MELT onto your table!!
