How to Crochet a Soap Holder Pattern

This cute soap holder makes a nice gift for friends or family. I made this crochet soap holder with zest soap and this size should work for most soaps. If you have a much larger soap then I would increase your beginning round of chains.

If you tell others about my work, please only link back to my blog, but don't copy my patterns to your site. Also you can sell anything you make from my patterns, but don't sell the free pattern. Thank you!
