Soap Sweater
These things are great! These make great gifts; pastel colors for baby showers; colors in a couple’s registry (I always look at what color towels and bathroom accessories a couple has picked out) for a wedding gift; fun, bright colors for birthdays. Let your imagination go wild!
Use feltable wool yarn.
Here are some of the benefits of making/using one of these guys…
1.You get soap and washcloth in one!
2.The texture of the wool enhances the lather and makes for great exfoliating power!
3.Because the wool helps to make lather, your soap will last longer!
4.Wool is naturally antimicrobial, so this guy won’t get all yucky as long as you keep it from just sitting in water (keep it on a soap tray with ventilation holes, just like a regular bar of soap).
5.The wool makes for a nice grip, no more slippery soap!
6.Also, they are great for camping/traveling as you don’t need a washcloth.
7.Once your soap runs out, you have a nice scrubby for your shower… Or, since this thing will smell great once the soap is all used up, throw it in your lingerie drawer as a yummy sachet.
