As I was cleaning my dining room/craft table I came across the plarn I had made last month. I immediately felt the urge to finish the already started bag. I think I was just looking for a reason to stop cleaning, but my theory was crochet the bag and then I won’t have to find somewhere to store the plarn balls. I just sort of made this up as I went along, so no pattern to share, however if you’re looking for plarn inspiration check out RecycledCindy’s blog, she has a lot of great ideas and free patterns.
This bag worked up quickly thanks to the large hook and I used up all of my plarn! It seemed like it took me longer to cut the plarn than to crochet it, but the cutting is the boring part. I made stripes to make it a little interesting, I wish I had more colors to choose from. 
It turned out a great size for grocery shopping and the red stripe will coordinate with my “meat” bags. Plarn was easy for me to work with and I will be making more of these bags, it seems like there is always plenty of plastic bags around even though I normally bring my own bags or at least ask for paper.
I want to try VCR tape next, although I hear that it’s a little harder to work with,(it sticks to the hook).
