Suds O’ Plenty Soap Sack

This soap sack can be used with most soap but was designed to work with square or odd shaped soaps. I use mine with soaps from Pegasus Soaps (pegasussoaps.etsy.com). My personal favorite is the oatmeal soap; it fits in this sack perfectly.

Rowan All Seasons Cotton (green sack)
Or
Peaches and Cream Cotton (blue/green variegated sack)

US7 DPNs or circular long enough to do magic loop.
