Country Soap Pouch - FREE PATTERN!

on

 

Intro

Hello! I, like many people, am switching over to Homemade bars of soap as part of our daily routine. I personally struggle with keeping bars of soap in my hands when in use. So, I made this Country Soap Pouch.

This pattern is perfect for homemade bars of soap. The texture of the pouch massages your skin while cleaning in the shower or bath. And no more bars of soap slipping out of your hands with this pouch. I made these pouches out of 100% cotton yarn. Making it easy to clean between bars of soap.

This pattern comes in two sizes: Full & Half. The Full Size is perfect for the full size bars of soap (3-4.5oz) and the Half Size is perfect for the sample size bars of soap.
