Excelente forma de reciclar envases de plástico @tahiaarq. He usado bolsas de plástico para lo mismo y fue 'divertido' juntar colores similares y luego hacer el 'hilo'...
That's an excellent way to reuse plastic containers. I have used plastic carrier bags in the past and it was 'fun' collecting' similar colours and then making the 'plarn' (= plastic yarn :D
Si se logran cosas muy lindas y divertidas, la creatividad te ayuda, al conocer técnicas luego las aplicas y logras un montón de cosas
Gracias por pasar, comentar y apoyar
Plarn a great name... Firts time I hear that.. I like.. Thanks
De eso se trata @tahiaarq... Nos apoyamos y seguimos adelante 😊

This is a very cool idea @tahiaarq! We have so many plastic bottles lying around and this certainly will help with the environment. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Indeed ... that is the main reason for my publication

Hello @tahiaarq and Welcome to #NeedleWorkMonday! It’s great to have you to join us! We love getting together every Monday to share our work, patterns, techniques, shortcuts and to inspire each other.
Clever way to recycle. The plastic bags makes me think of the people that crochet huge mats out of them for the homeless. We love seeing projects come to life so appreciate the step by step instructions. Looking forward to seeing more work from you ;)
Thank you, Thank you... for the comment and the support... next time I will do on monday... I am learning others techniques to apply and show you...
You’re very welcome! 😊
Very clever and love that you reuse these things rather than being just garbage. How do you come up with it???
Thank you, I do some research looking for techniques and reuse stuff... and then pu it together to make something pretty and wearable
