Soap Sock Ornaments
Soap Sock Ornaments - seamless, striped knit socks for circular soaps that felt during use. A circular soap is knit into the finished design and the knit sock acts like a built in washcloth and loofa. They are a unique and darling addition to Christmas trees and gifts.
These soap sock ornaments are worked in the round starting from the bottom and worked up. It is a small project, knits up fast, and is a great way to use up leftovers in your yarn stash. The pattern contains six different stripe combinations with two or three colors. The stripe patterns included are half and half, thick stripes, and thin stripes.
