High tensile PE Produce bags | Standard Windmill Loop

I revisited this project which has been quite literally shelved for some years. it was originally going to be a camping mat, but now I think carrier bags woud be more suitable for that.

I wanted to try ‘zip together’ some more panels after trying this technique with carrier bags. This is made from 5 square panels locked together and basket is quite large, about half a metre across.

I was pleased that it accommodated many types of produce bag, some of different sizes, and many torn, ripped, and with stickers cut out. In many cases I used small knots to make the loops whole.

The basket started off squared as you’d expect and I rolled over the rim to make it stronger. I’ve noticed that it has changed shape – now it has a definite sag to it and the base has spread out considerably.

I like the soft look and feel of it.
