Free Crochet Pattern – Shopping Bag

I am not sure what looks better, the veggies, the fruit, the bread or the bag. This bag is perfect for gift giving as well as personal use. It scrunches up small so can fit into a hand bag or tote for last minute shopping. Full tutorial and more amazing photos can be found here at Molliemakes.com.

Why should you make your own shopping bags or totes? Plastic bags are from the same source as all plastic: crude oil. So what is wrong with crude oil?

The manufacturing process emits considerable amounts of pollution, and the product is not biodegradable. On land, plastic bags are one of the most common types of litter worldwide.

As plastic bags are lightweight and float easily, this means they can travel long distances when picked up by the wind this includes landing in the ocean. Then wildlife gets tangled or ingests the bags, both in the sea and on land.

Make a difference and make your own shopping grocery bags. Have plastic bags you need to re-use? Consider making these DIY upcycled plastic bag crafts.
