Fast and super easy, this Granny Plastic Bag Dispenser is a practical crochet project for storing plastic bags.

Using Caron Cotton Cakes, the colour shown is called Driftwood. The dispenser is 11" long without a hanging loop and approximately 4" in diameter.

Put it in the closet, hang it on the stair railing or put it close to the door so you don't forget to take your bags. For quick access.

The Bottom of the Dispenser

I left a hole at the bottom of the dispenser so you can either pull the bags from the top or the bottom. The bag is a continuous revolution from the start to the end of the project.
