How to Make Plarn & Crochet an Eco-Friendly Tote Bag. The gears in my brain are constantly turning and trying to come up with ways to save discarded materials from a quick trip to a long life in a landfill by transforming said trash into something new and useful.
In this week’s edition of How-Tuesday, Etsy seller Claire Baker shares one solution for extending the useful life of the commonplace plastic grocery bag. Read on for tips for making your own yarn (or “plarn”) from plastic bags and a pattern for crocheting a tote bag. Claire Baker grew up and lives in Montclair, NJ, where she creates repurposed products for her Etsy shop, Montclair Made. Combining the skills she learned as a weaving and textile design major at Rochester Institute of Technology with her desire to repurpose familiar items like cardboard packaging, grocery bags, vintage fabric, and sewing patterns, her products fuse nostalgia and sustainability in an effort to green our lives in a creative and colorful way.
