Crochet bag “No Plastic!”
 
Sustainability can be very stylish as proven with this crochet bag! Worked in rounds and single crochet stitches, the bottom is worked separately and crocheted on later.  Then add the handles strengthened by bendable plush , sew them onto the top edge and your bag is already finished!  Then you will also be a part of the big, creative community. The crochet shopping net doesn’t just look cool it is also contributes to environment and climate protection since it will deem the plastic shopping bags redundant. With every time you are shopping with this bag it will deem at least 2 plastic shopping bags redundant. A fun project that makes a difference for our environment. The initiative for handmade products (Initiative-Handarbeit) in cooperation with GreenBagLady.org also thought it to be a great idea and designed a stylish label you can order and use for all handmade products. Every label has a number printed on it so everyone will know just how many lasting bags are already going around. Order your personal Make-me-Take-me label here:
