How to Make the Grocery Bag Sleeping Mats

Grocery Bag Sleeping Mat

Dimensions: 32-36 inches by 72 inches

Material

• 10mm crotchet hook (P Size), or larger
• Scissors
• 500-700 Grocery bags
• 4 Hefty refuse liner black bags, 45 gal. size

Directions

1. Cut off handles and holding tabs of grocery bag
2. Cut off the bottom seam

• You are now left with a square

1. Cut from side-to-side into 4 equal parts
2. Take 2 Loop circular pieces and knot them together to create your plastic yarn
3. Continue knotting rest of the pieces together
4. Crotchet your plastic yarn into a mat

Notes:

• Make sure loops are even
• One single crotchet stitch
• Crotchet in the back loop of the stitch when you turn over. It makes them a little more comfortable I think. It gives them that ridge which might keep out the dampness better.

• Not all 500-700 bags need to be cut at one time, it can be done in sections.  Cutting the bags takes the most time, and can be done as a team.
