Although crocketing with plastic strips sometimes is too heavy for my arms, everytime I start again I somehow get addicted for a while. So here are some new ones.

The process of combining colors and materials is what's causing the addiction for me. And ofcourse the fact that something that's lost his first function and maybe would have ended up in the recycle bin is reformed into something useful again.

The cases are formed starting with a flat crocheted piece. I cut up the heavy plastic shoppingbags from boutiques in strips about 1 cm wide and fold them so the inside color of the bags doesn't show while crocheting. The way I cut them result in a very long plastic yarn. The thin bags from marketplaces are cut up in loops wich are tied together to form the yarn.

Putting the zipper in is a bit difficult because the "fabric" is pretty heavy, but on the other hand putting in the sides is more easy because of the exact same reason. Sometimes I use fabric to make the sides and sometimes I crochet the sides as well.

The tags are formed with scraps of what's left of the handle, top or bottom of the bags together with other materials I used.
