Hi friends, if you are new here, welcome to the sunflower family, I’m Holly Auna. We do a “Monday crochet” live stream every Monday at 5pm ct followed by a new video! On this channel, we do crochet, gardening, vlogs, renfaires, DIYs, thrifting, silly hair things and so much more! 🌻🧶👩🏻‍🌾🪴🐸

My grandmother and I used to make plarn and use it to make sleeping mats for the homeless people in the community. And with them being waterproof it kept people off the literal ground and dry.

@not.me12380 4 месяца назад

I love it!!! Plarn bags are super nice because you can have things like sunglasses and stuff in them and it doesn’t snag just like regular yarn would! It’s also FREE and it saves a couple bags from the landfill!

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

Ooo never thought about the sunglasses point that’s so true! I like that you can wash it really really easily

@LiterallyAllNamesAreTaken 4 месяца назад

“for free” would be if the plastic bags themselves were still free. idk about other countries but the UK has really cracked down on the overconsumption of flimsy plastic shopping bags in major shops. they’re not free anymore. they went from costing just a couple pennies, to still pennies but would very quickly become a few dollars. luckily the bags we have now are stronger and made to last much longer, encouraging more people to reuse them. although you actually rarely see shop-branded bags out with people and you see more “normal” bags with designs on them as they’re even stronger and of course just look better. overall better for the environment yes, just not for this.

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

wow that is amazing that will have to be decreasing the use of plastic bags by so much! (which is the goal :) ) I'll be doing more recycled yarn idea videos soon :)

@suddenrandomness5810 4 месяца назад

@user-ou2wn4we9i 4 месяца назад

Making yarn out of strips of off cuts from fabrics or just general fabric scraps is great. I made an entire jumper dress with it and loved the upcycled look. 😊

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

i have SO MUCh scrap fabric from joanns i dont even sew (yet) but I can't resist their remnants section LOL maybe i should make yarn!

@ASquareGranny 4 месяца назад

Soooo many items come to mind (for upcycling)! All types of bags, clothing, sheets/bedding, curtains, table clothes, thrift store fabrics, old neckties (RELLY FUN ONE!), even socks and tights! Anything that has flex, I’m thinking! Looking forward to this series and hoping you GO EASY on your wrist! ☺️🫶🏻🧶🌻

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

Omg I hadn’t though if neck ties!!!! Or socks or tights! I want to do t shirts like you know how thrift stores always have old corporate t shirts like shirts made for one event like a marathon or bachelorette party? Those so often end up in landfills I feel like I could make so much yarn with them!

@ArawynnEveningstar 4 месяца назад

*cries in Canadian* Would never be able to do this because Canada banned plastic bags like these years ago. We have to use terrible reusable bags that are still made of plastic material that aren't the greates material. It is a neat idea though.

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

That’s honestly incredible for the environment!!!! You can still make other recycled yarn tho! I’m planning on doing a video about tshirt yarn soon!

@NanaonHazel 3 месяца назад

several years ago I heard of a group who used plarn to crochet sleeping mats to distribute to homeless people. The idea was for a mat that was light weight and could be easily carried around that would also help them stay above the wet grass or ground and dry faster than a cloth mat.

If you cut the bag in an open slit down the side (after top and tiling it) and then fold it in half, cut it on alternating sides almost all the way through and you'll have one giant loop.Then just cut that loop and you have one long strand. Look up: walk through one sheet of paper trick, for cutting instructions

@inescosta2671 4 месяца назад

Not many, imo the album kinda decepcionated me:-( Before, i looked at the cover and thought "oh taylor is experimenting with something new and darker" but now that i have heard it, it sounds like a sound she has recicled over and over again. Sry, no hate😅 i don't hate taylor. I actually like midnights (the great war 😘) and 1989❤, but she ain't my favourite bc personally there are ssssooo many artists that could be more valuable when it comes to their sounds if they were the ones up there, instead of her. Like, they could be more refreshing for the industry, yk what i mean?

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

@@inescosta2671I get that ❤ not every album is for everyone, like midnights and 1989 are my least fav albums of hers (but I still enjoy them a lot!) I think TTPD is more for the evermore and folklore girlies (which are my personal faves) ❤❤❤ what is your favorite taylor song overall???? I love hearing what people’s favorite songs are!

Sorry if you've already had this message - there is a way to make 'continuous' plarn, which doesn't require you to knot it together. You get a continuous ball from one bag. There are a bunch on videos on here about it.

Eu por acaso, há alguns anos, fui a um workshop em que aprendi a fazer uma mala pequena para o telemóvel (era um android 5 portanto era mesmo pequeno😂) com tiras de sacos de plástico usando um tear de madeira. Um tear é uma espécie de máquina de madeira que pode ter entre 200 a 20 anos, se calhar 🤷‍♀️, que se usava muito cá em portugal para fazer roupas muito antes dos pronto-a-vestir aparecerem :-) É uma memória que nunca vou esquecer❤ Porém, infelizmente perdi o saco 😢

@HollyAuna 4 месяца назад

The things I’ve seen people use it for most are 1. ironically shopping bags lol 😂 basically just making big reusable shopping totes and it can take a few hundred to make a big tote. 2. mats for unhoused people because it is water proof 3. Bucket hats! I haven’t personally but I’ve seen a lot to people make them and then lastly I like it for things like little baskets because it’s sturdy and wafer proof I have a little basket in my kitchen :) Oh and someone in the comments suggested a plant hanger for outside! I crochet plant hangers with jute but if I used plastic it would be water proof!
