Soap Holder Body Scrubber

This soap holder doubles as a body scrubber meant for scrubbing rough areas on your skin. If you want a softer scrubber, just substitute cotton yarn for the nylon yarn. When the bar of soap gets small, just tuck a new one in with the small piece of soap. So this is also a soap saver! In the picture you will see that I made two samples. The blue one is made with worsted weight acrylic yarn and the other one is made with nylon yarn.
