I tried knitting with plastic bags today. Just to see how it’ll feel like. The first bit I did was with some Sainsbury’s carrier bags using a size three and three quarters needle.
I must have cut the bags too thin because they kept snapping and I had to keep tying the ends… let’s just say it wasn’t fun. So I rounded it up and went to get bigger needles.
Using size five needles, I was cut the bags a little thicker so they didn’t snap as easily. I’m using white and blue plastics for what is (hopefully) going to be the stap for the first bag I knit.
Yeah, it’s going to be a big bag!
I still have a looooong way to go… meantime, I’m off to bed. I can’t feel my legs; to be honest, I’m wondering how I’ll make it the room.

Well, these few days are going to be mad. So, in case I’m not able to blog, I’ll be back in two – three weeks, God willing.
Can’t wait to see the end results! Good luck with it!
ryn: It’s just getting into winter here. And you should let M cook for you sometime! Or cook together, it’d be fun! And it’s great that he actually wants to help out in the kitchen! =)
