Shower Soap Bag Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

Shower Soap Bag Crochet Pattern

Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs



I have had The Shower Soap Bag in my designing
 book for a while. It was a request for a soap bag 
from a gentleman for "man's soap bag".
It needed a longer handle and no "fancy stuff".




I designed it with the guys in mind, but I really 
think it is very useful for both the guys 
and the girls, and so I decided to get it 
written up and film a video tutorial.
I really like how quick and easy it was to 
stitched up and
If you want to "fancy" it up, you can just use more 
fancy colors of  yarn. I used medium (4) weight
 cotton yarn from my yarn stash. And I really
 like it a lot. It's a little roomier to fit
 the standard size bars of soap.

Snow Bound Ear Warmer / Headband Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

Snow Bound Ear Warmer / Headband
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs 


When I think of January I think of cold and
  ❆❆❆  snowy weather!  ❆❆❆
Brrrrrr! I need to keep my ears warm.
So I designed a warm and cozy ear warmer 
for just this purpose, and it is so pretty
 everyone will want one.


The Ear Warmer is Stitched up holding 2 strands 
of Medium (4) weight acrylic yarn together. 
It stitches up super fast because of holding those
 2 strands of yarn together. This makes a comfy cozy 
headband to keep those ears toasty warm.


It's perfect for playing outside, for those errands
 and shopping trips, And for the morning and evenly
 walk with the dogs, as well as, a lovely fashionable 
way to just keep warm.
