Transforming Plastic into Fashion - Know the Process by Watching This Video

Plastic Bottle to Fashion

I used to think how difficult it would be to convert plastic wastes such as bottles, and polybags into filament and yarns. One video I found on a LinkedIn post, clarifies it very well. 

This video shows the steps of converting plastic bottles into staple yarns. Then it shows the knitting process of making cloth using yarns made of recycled plastic bottles. 

This video shows tools and techniques with miniatures. It includes a shredding machine. Spinnning yarns from the fibre. Circular knitting machine to knit fabric from the yarn made from plastic bottles. 

What next? 

Watch the following video.
