Even More Plarn

I finally emptied that large tote bag full of white and clear cut plastic bags (loops). I was able to get 5 skeins of white plarn and 2 skeins of clear plarn. The two top skeins in the picture are not a full skein. I'll add more to them at a later date.

I placed all of my tiny balls of plarn in a plastic food container. They don't get all tangled up in there, plus I can see what I have.

I still have a ways to go before I have cut up all of my plastic bags. I dropped off a bag of bottom seams and handles that was left over from making plarn in the grocery store recycle bin. Inside I saw some Hannaford and brown plastic bags. I couldn't help myself, so I took those bags to make plarn out of. Tonight I will work on my pile of cut newspaper bags. I should have a few colored skeins tomorrow as a result.

I'm almost finished making my mom's present. Once finished I want to start on a 2nd present for her. I thought that I would have to break my record of not buying yarn to buy the right color for her. However I discovered some in my stash earlier today. So far I have not bought any yarn or fabric this year.

More Plarn


It was another plarn making day. I made these 2 skeins of plarn from the white and clear bags that I cut last night. I also started making another white skein. I'll continue making more plarn tonight.

I was able to work on my mom's birthday present during story time at the library.
