Shopping Bag Bracelets

My friends and I have been talking about recycling plastic bags into totebags and wallets. Most of the patterns on the internet were for crocheted bags. I can't crochet so decided to knit. And instead of bags, I decided to knit bracelets. I've knitted a bracelet a night while watching the baseball division series. Clockwise from bottom right, white bracelet from Target bags, jade/blue bracelet from Glen Park Market & Old Navy bags, yellow/white bracelet from Target & Tower Records bags, yellow/blue bracelet from Tower Records & Old Navy bags and white/red bracelet from Target and a western clothing bag. Most of the bracelets can be worn as cuffs or rolled up as bangles.
