These make great gifts and are a great stash buster.
When complete the sock is quite stretchy and fits a large variety of soaps including most square homemade bars from markets and the like.

Written in UK terminology.
Worked in continuous rounds.
One sock Measures approx 7.5cm by 10cm, not including the handle loop.
Pattern starts at the bottom of the sock and works up to make a loop handle and a little hole for the handle to go through to hold the sock closed.
Gauge is not important for this project.
Normally I use Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Cotton but you could use a cotton blend, this may cause a variation in the size of the sock a little.
