The finished plastic bag bag!
Holds vinyl LPs just fine.
I rocked this bag all over 3 boroughs today and received...well, a luke warm response. The next bag will be way fresher. Just warming up.
Thanks to my brother for the barely acceptable photo and thanks to me for the worse one.

There has been renewed interest in one of my favorite projects completed last year: Bag Bag. I knit this from thin strips of plastic cut from select bags from the utility closet collection. The handles were purchased. Here's Bag Bag on the move:

Here are some details of the fabric.




In other news, dub legend Lee Scratch Perry came to Burlington this past weekend. He put on a damn good show for a septuagenarian. We also enjoyed the performance of Brooklyn-based Dub Is a Weapon.
It was one of those blissful events that makes us so grateful for the lake, the mountains, and abundant art and music that make Burlington a damn fine place to live and raise children.

If you're in Burlington this month, visit Viva Espresso on North Winooski to see some lovely photographs of rusted metal and weathered wood by Tres Crady.
