Introduction
Welcome to my channel! In this tutorial, I will show you how to crochet a super cute and fast soap saver. This project is incredibly easy, with just a one-row repeat, and can be used not only as a soap saver but also as a cell phone cover. Adjusting the size of the soap saver to fit your own soap is a breeze. Let's get started and I'll walk you through the process step by step.
Materials Needed
Before we begin, make sure you have the following materials:
- 4mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
- Piece of soap
- 100% cotton yarn (any cotton yarn will do)
Creating the Base
We will start by making a chain that fits around your soap. Create a slipknot and chain 12 stitches. Make sure the chain fits snugly around the soap. Then, add 3 additional chains. We will be using the third stitch from the hook to start our pattern.
Working in Spiral Rounds
To create the base of the soap saver, work one half double crochet in every stitch. Crochet in a spiral round, making sure to work in the back loop only. Keep repeating this pattern until you reach your desired height for the soap saver.
Adding Height to the Soap Saver
Continue crocheting in spiral rounds, making one half double crochet in the back loop only in every stitch. This will add height to the soap saver. Repeat this process until the soap saver reaches the desired height.
Finishing Off the Soap Saver
To finish off the soap saver, make two half double crochets in the last stitch. Do not close off the round with a slip stitch. Instead, continue working in spiral rounds, making one half double crochet in the back loop only in every stitch.
Adding a Chain Tie
To create a tie for the soap saver, start by making a chain of the desired length. You can choose to have a short chain for a simple knot or a longer chain for a bow. Once the chain is long enough, chain one and pull tight. Cut the yarn and secure it.
Sewing in the End
Using a yarn needle, weave in the end of the chain through the stitches to secure it. Go under and over, repeating this pattern until the end of the chain is secure. Cut the excess yarn or sew it in, whichever you prefer.
Testing the Fit
Insert your soap into the soap saver and ensure it fits comfortably. Adjust the tightness of the tie if necessary by pulling it tighter or looser. Tie a knot or a bow to keep the soap secure.
Finalizing the Soap Saver
