It happened. I was minding my own business… and I saw it. Cat potholders! But the potholders I saw had plastic eyes and a nose and was for decoration only, because, hello, plastic will melt! What?! Who does that?! If I'm making a potholder, you can bet you can actually use it to take a hot pot out of an oven! Or display it if you want. And speaking of melting, here's a little tip… if you use acrylic yarn, it probably WILL melt. So this potholder is made out of cotton yarn and is double thick to help protect your hands from the heat.

Plastic Bag Holder - Free Crochet Pattern
Recently we made a move into a new house, as we were unpacking I began to collect a large pile of plastic grocery bags. I generally use this bags pretty often so I didn’t want to throw them away. That’s when I realized I didn’t have a bag holder to put them in. Moving can be pretty expensive so the last thing I wanted to do was purchase one knowing full well I could make one myself, so I did!
You can easily make this bag as long as you want to fit more grocery bags, my family is pretty small so I made a smaller bag holder. If you want a larger one just work more rounds in-between the increases/decreases.
I always recommend using cotton yarn when working an anything household related. For this pattern I used Peaches and Cream’s Cotton yarn which you can find HERE. They have so many colors to choose from!
