Here in Haryana,
when you go grocery shopping, the plastic bags are not free, you have to pay
for them. It gets expensive after a while if you have to buy a new bag each
time, and for garbage bags it’s cheaper to buy a whole roll of them.

You can
buy fabric bags in stores, they are cheap, Rs.20 I think, but they are of
non-dyed cotton and not very pretty. So, I decided to make one for myself.
I
keep it in my handbag, and you can see I fished it out from there for this
photo. It’s bit dusty and wrinkled, but at least you get a realistic picture of
what it actually looks like in use…
These
are crocheted in two ply white acrylic yarn (almost the same
colour as the wall…), with some items for body .
On
a side note, in Haryana, you bag your own groceries, there is no-one to do it
for you. We’re big on self-service… It caused great confusion when I tried to
do it in Delhi.
