[Nfb-krafters-korner] non-skid solutions

[Tammy]

I've seen a mat crocheted out of this.  It was a project to help the Homeless.  Turned out nice.
Thanks!

Plarn is made out of plastic bags that they put almost every thing you purchase now.  You cut the bags into strips hmmmmm like 1 inch wide give or take and use it as yarn.  As the name suggests Plastic yarn-plarn!  Makes great tote bags, etc.

Glitter glue in the tube works really. You can make swiftly lines on the bottom. I make a sample swatch with yarns I have never used to see how the glue works on it.  I also use plarn on the bottom I work a strand of plarn and yarn together Theresa

Has anyone ever had experience making the bottoms of slippers/socks non-skid? Preferably, I want something durable enough to go through the wash, and that will not damage either the socks or other laundry. Also, something easy to apply eyes-free. Any thoughts?
