I collaborated with Austin Green Art and several other people to make little booklets of plastic bag projects. They were handed out at the Austin Clean Sweep. Here is an online version:

Here are a few more plastic bag projects I found online that didn't make it into the final book:
Unfortunately I was out of town this past week and wasn't able to make it to the Austin Clean Sweep. It looks like it was a great time though. I got to display my plastic bag crochet projects, there was interactive plastic bag art, Virginia was there with her bag-o-matic kits, and there were hands on tutorials about fusing plastic bags. Here are some pictures:

An innovative way to recycle through crochet.
About Me
I'm Cristen and I like to crochet.
I recently started crocheting items from plastic bags. I hope that community pressure worldwide will encourage companies and consumers to be more responsible with their plastic bag consumption. Eventually maybe there won't be any more bags for me to use for crochet projects, but for now, I recycle bags by crocheting them. This blog is a place for me to display my work. Eventually I plan to create a site that includes tutorials, patterns, and info on workshops and projects. Please check back as I post updates on my progress. And if you have any suggestions, feel free to write me.
