Plarn Heart Applique Crochet Pattern

This holiday show some love to our Mother Earth with this plarn heart applique. The word ‘Plarn’ means Plastic Yarn! I have used soft, thin polythene grocery bags for making this heart. However, you can also recycle any soft plastic bags for making plarn out of it.

Plastic can be harmful to the environment. However, I like to see the glass half full rather than half empty. Plastic can also be recycled for creating art and crafts. This project is my initiative into reuse of plastic. I want to inspire others as well to use it for making useful things than just throwing it in the landfills. Let us all help the environment a little at a time.
