And sometimes when Matt gets on a real tie-dying bent and he runs out of space in the containers he usually sets the dyed garments in (they must be allowed to set for 12+hours after dying) he lays them out on plastic bags which are then recycled.

I'll go and have a look at Ravelry - my daughters Grace and Alice both do a lot of knitting :0)<br />Like you we mainly take our own bags to the store but sometimes forget or need an extra plastic one, and we have a linen holder to store them. The main uses we find for these plastic bags are:<br />1) To store fresh food in, especially bread, so it doesn't dry out, or to overwrap food with flimsy wrapping for the freezer.<br />2) As trash bin liners<br />3) To ferry away stuff from our house to Goodwill or other willing recipients, in our unstinting efforts to stem the rising tide of manufactured items.<br /><br />What do you do with yours?Pen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.com
