   Hey Everyone,
   Iv’e been doing this for for at least 15 years now. Made so many & given away so many totes, fishnet grocery bags, wallets & purses, rugs & even a sport coat for my son for one of his band’s concerts. One warning – the bags tend to melt (especially black plastics) in the sun. Great cause.

   I use the fabric reusable grocery bags for most of my shopping, except when I need more plastic ones to line my small bathroom and bedroom trash cans. I’ve been saving the bags from the dry cleaner to make plarn. They’ll make a very long piece of plarn before I have to add another length.

   I wonder if this will make a gardening mat to protect the knees.

    I understand that there are groups who use plarn to make sleeping mats for homeless persons.
