This simple crochet soap bag pattern is big enough to hold a large bar of soap. It can be used as gift wrap and then for exfoliating while bathing with the soap inside. This pattern meets the donation requirements for S.A.C.K., a non-profit organization that distributes handmade soap sacks and toiletries to homeless shelters, food pantries, and other organizations helping people in need.
