Recycled VHS Tape into a Sling Bag

http://www.myrecycledbags.com/wp-con...ingbagfur2.JPG Crocheted Sling Bag

Crochet a Sling Bag out of recycled plastic VHS tape. This little bag can be crocheted with the fun fur embellishment or without. The free pattern is available at my website blog just click here. It’s a great way to recycle those old VHS tapes into something fun and very useable.

Now that's a really neat idea! Way to go Cindy! About how many VHS tapes did it take to make the bag you have shown?

I had two reels (t-120s?) when I started as I crochet double strand with vhs tape. I still had some left on both reels after I was done.
