💙 Crossbody bag from recycled coffee bags 💙

How to weave an unique crossbody bag out of coffee bags. You need 40 coffee bags, string, snaps, d-rings, a strap and a lot of patience. This is a tutorial for zigzag weaving. A fun and creative way to upcycle plastic coffee bags into durable and functional bags. The coffee bag material used in this bag is laminated two layers of plastic with a layer of aluminum in between. Other similar food packaging are suitable as well. The coffee bags are 15,3 cm wide. If your material is different size, the size of the bag will be different also. Please calculate all the measurements using the width of your material. Happy weaving! For the weaving you need: - 40 coffee bags (at least) - paper or cardboard - a pen - scissors - clothespins or other clips - durable wooden sticks or knitting needles To join woven pieces, you need: - string (e.g. gift wrapping string) - a needle (I use 25 cm long Prym mattress needle: ) - scissor
