Soap Sacks to crochet

My basket of bazaar items is getting fuller by the day. Here's what was on my crochet hook last night--soap sacks. I thought this would be another nice bazaar item. After looking at the free patterns on the web, I decided to create my own. Four of them flew off my hook very quickly. I certainly couldn't knit them that fast! Have fun!

Soap Sacks

This soap sack makes a great skin scrubber. When you’re done with it, hang it up by the cord to dry. All you need is 18 yards of worsted weight cotton yarn, a crochet hook, and less than 30 minutes. Slip in your favorite bar of soap and enjoy!

Finished size: 3" x 5" (It should fit a standard size bar of soap.)

Size H (5 mm) crochet hook
Large eye tapestry needle
Worsted weight cotton yarn (I used Sugar & Cream.)
16 yards for sack
2 yards for cord


This pattern is now available as a free download through my Ravelry pattern store.

What a clever idea for soap! I'm also envious that you have so many yarn shops to visit in your vicinity...I have just one.

these are super cute, but i have a question. Do you know how to make the frog soap holders? My husbands' family has only 3 remaning from their grandmother who has passed away and one of hs sisters has put claim on them, I would love to know how to make them for the future generation.

After each round, do you slip stitch it closed?

Yes, slip stitch to join each round.
