Hello, I am trying to create a rounded version rather than triangular version of the recycling symbol featured in this tutorial: http://vector.tutspl...paper-bag-icon/

Unfortunately, I am unable to make much progress as the 'expand appearance' option is greyed out. Does anyone have any idea why?

why do you need expand appearance?
If you use 2 concentric circles and then use the "minus front" feature (after selecting both) you have i think what you want (dunno HOW round you want logo to be).
maybe screenshot can help a little more what you mean
