Just had to share.
A friend of mine crocheted several from the plastic grocery bags. It looked great and so stretchy yet sturdy for holding -something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SERA-c82Vmo I don't have speakers on this computer so I can't tell what she's saying but the photos look right. Or google plastic yarn or plarn.
