Green Handled Plarn Tote Bag

Posted on September 17, 2022

I have been busy crocheting a recycled tote bag for a future charity fundraiser. This bag was crocheted using the free ultimate grocery bag pattern.

The pattern creates a 13 inches long reusable tote bag. I used around 50 plastic retail sacks to crochet the bag. The green handles were plarn I made from lightweight grocery bags that I recycled. Here is a closeup photo below to show the crocheted green handles.

As you can see, you can be creative and add different colored bags to make contrasting handles or stripes. And of course, it’s a great way to recycle all those plastic bags into something useful and reusable.
