This is a really nice pattern, easy to follow, and the soap saver makes such a nice gift with a lovely bar of soap. Thank you.
Glad you like it!
Thank you miss Amanda. This will be my next project for a gift. Thank you.
You’re very welcome! Enjoy 😊
I've been wanting to learn how to crochet these soap bags/sacks, and I found the perfect pattern here! Thanks for this easy and cute pattern. 😁
You are so welcome! Enjoy!
This was soo easy to follow 👏🏻👏🏻 thank you very much!! ❤️
I'm so glad! 😊
So cute! Thank you for the tutorial ❤️
No problem 😊
Love this cute pattern! Thank you for the tutorial ... I found your instruction very clear to follow 🥰
Glad it was helpful!
This tutorial was so easy and you explained it so well. I made it along with you and it turned out great. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
I have finished a few easy projects over the last few years, but haven't picked up a hook in 12 months or so. Your tutorial was very easy to follow with a clear view of the stitches and an easy pattern. Thank You! I'm confident I can make these with your help.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you found this easy to complete 😊
This is a great pattern and I’ve never done a drawstring before so that was pretty neat!
Thank you! 😊
My dear Amanda, you just made my day! This will be my next project. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love making these, and I love this design.
You are so welcome! Enjoy!
@@haleytyrrell9609 Great idea!
Can you design a couple soap savers similar to this but use some textured stitches? I bet the griddle stitch the suzette stitch and the waffle stitch would make great soap savers. Those textured stitches would be good stfor exfoliating your skin.
Great idea!
Thanks!
Cute and cool 😎
Thanks!
I absolutely loved this tutorial. A lot more simple compared to others that I've seen. Will be using this for an upcoming craft fair at my work. Gained a new subscriber and a fellow Amanda❤
I’m so glad to hear and thanks for subscribing! These will be perfect for craft fairs!
You’re so explanatory and detail oriented. I love it. You’re channel caught me eye cuz of crochet and my name is Amanda as well. lol. But I love that you explain what you’re doing to make it easier for beginners. ❤❤love!!!!!!
Hi Amanda! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my channel and my tutorials! 😊🧶
Thanks for awesome video!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you, this was a good tutorial. This was my second project after dish cloth!
Great job! You're welcome!
Thank you for a lovely tutorial, I had to watch a few times to get it right but everything’s fallen in place and I’ve made two for my daughter using different sized hooks. Now to make some for my son. Quick and easy to make, definitely a favourite. Thanks again again x
You’re very welcome! I’m glad you’re enjoying this pattern!
this pattern can be used for cell phones too. Thank you for making this video for us, Amanda! 🙂
Oh that’s a great idea! Maybe even to hold some candy too. 😊
Thank you very much for sharing this pattern! Really easy to follow. I made a version where I did a couple double crochet and chain one rows in between instead of all dc’s so I can see the soap inside 😆 for my yarn choice it became a lot sudsier 💕
You’re welcome! Oh that sounds like it could be fun. Glad you found a way to put your own creative spin on it 😊
Thank you so easy. I’m going to try & put in Irish spring soap & hang in garden to try & keep,deer out. Maybe try & figure out what to put in them for a squirrel repeller. I have plenty of dish cloth cotton to use up.
You’re very welcome!
This was super helpful!
I used a rainbow yarn I was gifted, and didn’t wash it before I popped the soap in😂😂 that’s a fun lesson for future projects
Glad it was helpful!
This is the first time crocheting one of these bags has worked out for me. I don’t know how or why, but thank you. 😅❤
You’re welcome 😊
this has helpt me so much
I’m so glad to hear! 😊🧶
@@AmandaCrochets you are a very good yuteuber love your videos
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@AmandaCrochets im sorry to but can you show you face
@@NasriaAliyar thank you!
@@NasriaAliyar someday I will. I’m very shy 🙈
Excellent tutorial. Your explanation and video of the stitches are very easy to follow for a beginner. Much appreciated. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Amanda, love this! I noticed you don't mention weaving in the tail after slip stitching. Do you leave it the way it is?
I probably forgot to mention it lol. Yes you will weave in both tails before complete long your project.
Oh my. I absolutely love this and I'm determined to get it right. As of right now, my one side looks botched. I'm new to crocheting and my ends are always messed up 😢
Keep trying! You can always use stitch markers to help mark where the first or last stitch needs to be.
@@AmandaCrochets I'm definitely going to try using markers. I'm attending a crochet class today at my church. Hopefully the ladies can help me understand how to recognize my last stich. Thanks for the reply!
@@Ash0887 you’re welcome and good luck!
Loved the video. Very helpfull! I was wondering how long it takes for 100% cotton to fade?
I’m happy to hear! As far as the color fading, I would assume after many, many washes, but I guess it depends on the saturation of each color.
Also do you do the 2 chains every time you get to the ends? I haven’t been I just kept the double crochet going all the way round
Yes, to start each round, you will make a chain 2.
I made one of these to practice my age-old skills. I successfully completed it after watching your video several times.... it's very thorough, Thank You! When it was done, I put a bar of soap in it and washed my hands. I hung the bag (with the soap in it) on the faucet to dry but the 100% cotton yarn holds onto so much water that the soap just gets mushy. I think the soap will melt very quickly. I would like to give these as little gifts but seeing how mine looks hanging on the faucet (droopy and saggy and melty), I wouldn't.
Would it be possible to make these out of some kind of twine? Maybe it would be more "airy" and dry better. Is it practical/possible to crochet with twine, or is there another "non-yarn" material that would allow the water to drain off the soap? e.g. natural jute, macrame cord, or cotton baker's twine?
I use mine just to store dry soap when traveling. Maybe if you used a different type of stich which resulted in bigger holes, it would dry quicker?
Thank you! Cotton is super absorbent, so I would understand why it might take longer to dry. Maybe try wringing out the soap saver to help get rid of excess water? I don't know if another material would work, but you're more than welcome to try it out!
When you cinch the drawstring it just loosely closes. When you use the soap, it slides around and wants to jump out of the bag because the drawstring doesn't keep the bag closed tightly. I tied a knot in the drawstring but I would be interested to see how you would solve this problem.
As far as I know, you can either tie a knot or pull the drawstring closed. Maybe try weaving the drawstring in and out a little more, so there's more of a closure on top? Or I guess you could make the drawstring chain a little longer, so you can not only cinch it closed, but you can also tie a knot as well. Hope that helps!
So should I be using a 5.5 mm hook or a 5 mm hook?
I used a size H 5.0mm crochet hook for this pattern 😊
thank you, I can’t wait to make this!!
@@kathyhhhone you’re welcome!
So cute and a great idea. I’m sure u could leave it in the shower 🚿 and hang it up❤❤❤
Yes, you absolutely can. You put the bar of soap into the soap saver, pull it shut with the drawstring, and you can leave it in the shower or hang it up somewhere if you have a hook in the shower or something like that to keep it ventalated and dry for
you to use next time. And they're very eco-friendly and help you to use up all your leftover soap pieces. I've been on a soap saver kick for almost a year now and have made about 105 of them. There are a few other crochetfor on RUclips who have made soap savers on their channels, and I love them too. These would be perfect for birthdays or special occasions as well. They make wonderful gifts.
@@haleytyrrell9609 yes great ideas! Love it🥰🥰
Yes you can! Glad you enjoyed this tutorial!
5mm or 5.5 ?
I used a size H 5mm crochet hook for this project
How does yours finish like all the same level? Mine doesn’t get even for me to finish it, idk where I’m going wrong 🫣
It's possible that your tension is too tight in some spots and loose in others. You could also be skipping stitches. Keep trying! :)
