Soap Socks - A seamless knit sock for circular soap that felts itself during use. It’s like an all-in-one soap, washcloth, and loofa. The circular soap is knit into the finished design.

These soap socks 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. They also make a fun and unique gift.
