You Are a Gift – A Soap Sack for Breast Cancer Awareness. Knit with kindness and stitched with love, this simple soap sack was designed to do more than just hold a bar of soap—it’s a reminder that you matter, your health matters, and yes, you are a gift. Created in partnership with SoapSacks.com—a grassroots movement that delivers handmade soap sacks filled with soap to people in need—this version is made in shades of pink to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Pink is my favorite color, but this time it means even more: it’s a nudge to schedule your mammogram, support your sisters, and wrap others in handmade hope. For the month of October 2025, 100% of proceeds from this pattern will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Cancer Foundation.
