Learn to upcycle plastic bags to create versatile plastic yarn - ‘plarn’ - for weather-resistant projects!

All materials provided. Activities are designed for ages 17 and up.

Participants will be introduced to 'plarn' and its unique capabilities, guided through the process of creating a 'plarn' ball, then instructed on some basic starter projects to get familiar with using 'plarn' for larger and larger-scale projects. 

Following the workshop, there will be an opportunity for participants to contribute to a library-wide project of creating water-resistant sleeping mats using 'plarn' as a base material.
