Easy Sew Plarn Tote Shopping Bag

This is how to sew a plarn tote. You can do this with any fabric, just hem the raw edges or line it. With weaving, you can make the fabric the exact size and no hemming required. Weave plarn (or any material) fabric about 18" - 19" wide (your preference how wide). Make a 1" header, weave 34" and then make another 1" header for a total of 36" of cloth. Zig-zag the headers to keep them from unraveling. Make handles, you'll need 2. Your preference as to width and length. I make them anywhere from 42" or longer and about 2" wide, each. I find that wide handles is easier on the hands, especially of you're going to use these bags for grocery shopping. These bags can handle a LOT of weight. Sew on the handles to the right side. Sew the side and bottom seam. You can use the tote as is or square off the corners. See video for squaring off the corners. Enjoy your tote!

Repurposing materials for weaving

Weaving materials where you least expect it! Plastic bags, t-shirts, socks, pant legs...anything that's a tube can be cut into a continuous strip for weaving.

New to Me Brio Loom

This is a child's loom, so cute and easy to weave on. It's a rigid heddle on a counterbalance mechanism. I'll be applying this same principal of the counterbalance mechanism to my full size rigid heddle loom frame. Can't wait to get started building it.
