Thanks for watching. Anja xx
I hope you enjoy making this cute little eco soap bag. Let me know in the comments below where you are using yours. Thanks for watching, Anja
I'm using the smaller one made in the kitchen. And making gifts for family. My mom is looking forward to hers
I'm watching in England. I love the idea behind your design and I especially love the open stitch that you've used, so thank you. It's given me much pleasure crocheting this useful little bag. My husband loves it too, as he didnt like the soap dish I was using to try to prevent all the soaps dissolving into a mushy mess!
I've made a second one:) The first one was for my husband to be used as a soap saver. I decided to make one for myself. But, it turned out to be sooooo beautiful that I changed my mind and made it a bit longer to use as a small pouch for my mobile phone and decorated it with a daisy flower applique:) I'm so happy about it and I wanted to share it with you. Thanks again for the tutorial and the tips:) I love all your tutorials, by the way:))))
Oh my goodness! Talk about timing! I just looked up many, many patterns for soap sacks yesterday, and I wasn’t satisfied with what I found. I go on UA-cam this morning and look what Anja has posted!!! It’s PERFECT! I love it so much. Not only that, you taught me a couple things: catching the third loop to avoid a hole, which also keeps your vertical lines of crochet straight, and how you did your drawstring. They are both BRILLIANT! 💡 I’m so excited to make some!! 😃 Thank you so much, Anja!
I actually made this and your little face scrubbies and im giving them to my friends this year for Christmas in a little set! Its such a cute easy idea! And I was able to just use yarn I already had!
Wonderful!
Thank you so much for your trick for making the three strands for the drawstring!
Literally thought about these this morning when my bar of soap broke in half. "If only I had one of those soap bags!" I will have to pick up some cotton yarn this weekend! Maybe I will work on it during the live! Thank you, Anja!
I’ve made 3 eco soap sacks. I like #5 crochet thread. Thanks so much for the tutorial. I love the nice tips to triple the thread for the drawstring and minimize the ends to weave in. I love picking up the 3rd loop to anchor the stitches and better line up the squares. Best wishes.
i love this! do you have the patterns for the two others?
Beginners can do it. I have only been crocheting for a couple of months. This was great. I messed up just a few times, so great to be able to pause, undo the mistake and just watch and listen and you can follow. Thanks so much..😊
You can do it Bonnie! Thank you, Anja x
I did it and have already made 3..a few little mistakes and redo's, and they are great. Already gave some to a neighbor that is homebound she broke her hip. And she loved it, it's just a wonderful gift.
Thank You without your help it couldn't have been done
I've been looking to make these and have seen quite a few tutorials but this is fab less ends ☺ especially how you do the drawstrings thank you for sharing 😊 😊 ❤️
Just finished one. Very nice. I’d like to make a basket to take to a local animal shelter to raise money, so anything fast and to keep to price down is helpful. Idk about where you are but I’m from Virginia and the prices of yarn,gas, and food, everything has skyrocketed. The shelter I help with are a no kill and go above and beyond to help all they can. They rely on public donations so I try to help them when I can. So I thought maybe these would make a good little fund raiser with their donated store items. Thank you for the tutorial 🥰
A very good idea Wanda, I'm sure they will be very popular sales for the shelter. Anja x
@@OpheliaTalks I hope so. Thank you again for sharing ❤️
You are awesome. Yours and jayde stitches videos are so pleasant to watch and learn from and easy. I loved the "each person will need their own because it gets really personal doesnt it." 😊☺ Nice bag, great tutorial. Love the colors. See you in the next video for sure.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching Jazzie ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
I was looking for a small pouch for my pen and mouse charger for my laptop and didn’t find any I liked. I came across this tutorial and love the design. So I made one for my chargers. I am also going to make them as intended and gift during Christmas.
Wonderful! Thank you for watching Pacheco Boys ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
I'm making this right now with the scrubby yarn. It's turning out perfect. Thank you from Southeastern Wisconsin, USA!
Wonderful! Anja x
This is perfect for all those little soaps you collect from hotel stays!
Excellent tutorial. You explained everything very well. Thank you. I was able to make two bags this evening.
Wonderful Barb, great job! Thank you for watching, and following along, Anja x
Thank you for this fantastic pattern! I have made two already for myself and my daughter. I so enjoy your videos and look forward to the next one coming out.
What an amazing tutorial. Thank you so much. I love how you don’t make it to complicated
This is my favourite soap bag. Ingenious continuing the drawstring thank you 🙂

Thank you for this great tutorial. The tip for using the third strand to keep it in shape and the extending chain are absolutely fantastic.
Very nice and well explained, thank you. Love everything you do.

Anja, I LOVE THIS PROJECT!!❤️
"Home made and everthing" 😂😅
You remind me of the French chef teaching us to cook! 😄
Fiddly! 😍
Love this pattern, wish I'd found this before Christmas 2021...oh well it'll just be for next year 2022!!!!!!!
Oh what a shame, yes these make excellent gifts, for any time of the year really, Anja x
Lovely :)
Thank you so much, all the other patterns for this were too confusing to follow :)
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching Juniper Rose ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Brilliant
Hi Anja! New sub here. What a cute little project. Perfect for on the go 👍
I have a lot of mercerized cotton crochet thread no. 10 wondered if it would work too. Even doubled perhaps.
yes, why not give it a go? Thank you for watching Crafty Crafter’s Place ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Fantastisch gemachtes Video und perfekt gearbeitetes Seifentäschchen. Konnte es, dank dir, super nacharbeiten und bin jetzt ganz stolz auf mich , große Freude. Einen kleinen verbesserungsvorschlag hätte ich. Damit die Seife besser abtrocknet nach Gebrauch, ist der toll gearbeitete Boden des Täschchens besser auch so Netz beziehungsweise Gitterartig. Was meinst du. Liebe Grüsse und tausend Dank für die super Anleitung. Nina 💖👋
Thank you so much and well done to you!! Great idea about the bottom of the pouch. Thank you for watching Nina Lux ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Wonder if you can make a cover for antibacterial soap to cover it up
The plactic.. think it might look nice
Maybe with the same pattern????
Hi Anja, they are just beautiful - do you have a pattern for the larger white one please.
Hello Narelle, thank you, no I don't, it's easy to enlarge by using a bigger hook, or thicker yarn, failing that start with more stitches, hope this helps Anja x
Nice
Hello! I just subscribed to your channel! I am really happy with the way you explain! Would you please tell me if this stitch has certain multiples when using a medium weight cotton yarn that asks for an H hook? What would I adjust? I saw that you started with a 15 chain...should I make a smaller chain? The weight of the common cotton yarn I have is a 4 medium...I can go down to a G or even and F hook if needed. The yarn label asks for an H.
Please help! I want to make many as gifts! Thank you so very much!
These look so fun! Do you ever find the colour runs out of the yarn at all? I’ve had that experience with dishcloths sometimes and I wondered if I should prewash or not ? Thank you for being such a beautiful human ❤️ Your tutorials are so thoughtful!
No Lisa, I've never had a problem, I usually use cotton, and that's mostly colourfast. Anja x
Bonjour,🌼
Merci pour le tuto très bien expliqué.
J'en ai fait quatre, tellement le modèle est sympa avec un beau cordon, sauf que pour un gros savon c'est un peu juste.
Je recherche un tuto pour un gros savon, si vous avez je suis preneuse.
Merci par avance.
Bonne continuation
Isa
Hi Anya, texted before. Your work is lovely - I wanted to find out if you have pattern for the bigger white soap saver please. Kind regards Narelle.
Hi Narelle, I don't unfortunately. 😬
@@OpheliaTalks ... would going up a hook sizes make a bigger bag?
Perfect! Although I needed to watch this on 0.25 speed :D
yes I am also known as Speedy Gonzales!! LOL
I'm obsessed with being environmentally friendly conscious. Have you done ine for face scrubbies and body ones. I need some inspiration.
Would live to know how to stitch the white and pink bag, like those stitches
These look like a very good idea ... I'm also the lady who sent you messenger re how many balls of wool do I need to make your catch kidston blanket .... I need to know the Double bed size please . I think I've only got enough for single size . Be grateful if you could let me know please .
Many Thanks x
Hi Nanny Blue Belle, so sorry i did not reply to you sooner, i had visitors and when you click away the message thinking I will reply later, I cannot find it anymore!! LOL anyway, yes I only made a single bedsize but unfortunately I have no idea how many balls i even used, so I am guessing you need 15-17 balls for a single size so you will need double for a double size, about 30 balls, and you will need more of the blue than of the other colours!! Does this help at all??
Ophelia Talks yes indeed I will go with that and if it works out I need more I will add more on then . Thankyou so much I hope you've had a nice time with your visitors I too have visitors... family from Ireland are on their second week here and they leave on Sunday so all is good . xx
#Skills!!!!! 💥💯🔥
Thank you so much thinker2328, Anja x
Been looking for a soap bag pattern for my sister. Unless I find one I like better, this just might be the one I use. My only concern is mine is a medium 4 weight and yours looks pretty thin. Looks more like a very thin 3 weight or smaller.
Try it and see how it turns out. Shouldn't be much of a problem
how many chains would you use for the large size please?
This is my favourite video, and I'd like to be in with a chance of winning the 60k HiyaHiya hook set!
❤❤❤
Thank you swaneechermont4049, Anja x
I was also wondering can iuse this same pattern to make a large shopping bag?
Anja, what size yarn are you using? Hen i got to the pull. Mine was just to big. So i did do a chain with just one strand and it worked great. But i liked the way you did yours😊. I only had a #4 medium. Still learning the different sizes and types of yarn. 😊😊
My variegated yarn is equal to about a 4ply, I use a 2.5mm hook so it's quite fine. Thank you Bonnie, Anja x
Do you store your soaps in the bags wet? I tried another UA-camr’s pattern and found the bag and soap stayed soggy and mushy even hours after hanging to dry. Am I using the bags incorrectly or could it be the tightness of the stitch?
A lot of people use these bags to gift some soap. If you use it in the shower with the soap inside you have to hang it up to dry.
Make sure you are using cotton yarn as well. Acrylic yarn doesn't work well for these.
Do you change these bags after each bath?
No, not always, I leave them to dry, and use the next day, Anja x
Im curious if these soap bags will be gentle enough on your scalp if you put shampoo and conditioner bars in it?
Thank you for watching Naomi Joy ! Anja xxx 💕🌈 Try it and you will find out. 😊
Very nice but d colour made hard to c exactly what u do wish u could do another tutorial using diff colour please thankvu
I was wondering if there's any difference if i use acrylic yarn?
No Andie, not really, just that it will dry quicker than cotton! Enjoy, Anja x
i love these! Do you offer the patterns for the other 2?
Thank you for watching Lori Turner ! Anja xxx 💕🌈 please have a look at my Ravelry page here: bit.ly/buypatterns
Have to be cotton ?
Hi Melody, no, it doesn't have to be cotton, you can use anything, give it a go! Anja x
do you have this pattern written out any where ? thank you !
Not exactly for this bag but I do have another one here www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ophelia-drawstring-bag Thank you for watching Debbie Wassil Schmoekel ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
ترجمة على مود نعرف عدد الغرز شكراً
I'm wondering how I would adjust this for a 4 weight yarn? If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate your feedback. Thanks in advance!
Anonymous Amy you will have to do more stitches !
Is there a written pattern somewhere? Thank you
Hi Anji ,I thought you were in the uk ,way have you gone American terms ?
I always use american terminology! and yes I am in the UK! When I started I did not realise there were two different sets of terminology!! I do apologise, I hope you can still work it out!Thanks for watching! xxx
Tne. Lue yarn hard to see what you're doing.
Not for those still learning.
I want written pattern in my email
Excuse me!!
Sorry, not all my tutorials have written instructions, the rest are the videos, Anja x
Too fast. Beginners can’t see where you are putting the hook on some of these stitches. Others are great.
Noted! Thank you for watching Laura Burke ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
I suggest making them for Charities.
Great idea!
Wrong color to make a video, very dark!!
And the crochet needle is the same colour, really hard to fathom what's going on. A shame, because I'm a beginner and would have loved to have made this.
Very beautiful
Must be your eyes I had no problems seeing and making out what she was doing.
Je n'ai ni vos couleurs, ni votre papier. Néanmoins j'ai trouvé votre tuto très attrayant, alors j'ai essayé. Quatre fois. En résultat, j'ai obtenu à chaque fois des patates de couleur avec des auréoles, rien à voir avec le tuto. Finalement, je crois qu'il faut déjà être expérimenté, pour créer les formes parfaitement rondes et faire fuser les couleurs. Je suis à mille lieux du résultat, frustrée de surcroît. Voilà. Ce fut une expérience. Merci quand même. 😅
Oh wow Alena, I don't know what you might be doing wrong, but please try again, maybe pause the video now and then so you can crochet along with me! Good luck, and thank you, Anja x
Can't see 2nd row. Tok dark. Can't see what you did. Beginner level.
Hi gilbertegaudreau8035, may l suggest you watch the video again, maybe slow it down using the cog in the bottom right of the video, it should help. Thank you, Anja x
Well, it´s a very cute little soap bag - and you show it very well! I will now start to make soap bags for my Young Living Soaps. I use it every day an I like mostly the Charcoal Bar Soap. Thank you so much for that tutorial. Many greetings from Germany! If you like - look at my site: www.myyl.com/soul-spa there are a lot of soaps with essential oils. They are so economic and natural - I love them - and now they all get a little handmade soap bag!! Thank you so much!
Wonderful! Thanks for watching my video Maike Klein and keep crocheting. Anja xxx💕🌈💕
Nice
