***This listing is for the crochet Iris Stitch Soap Cozy PATTERN only**
I have two words for you: SOAP SACK! I’m obsessed.
It all started when I read Lion Brand’s blog post about Stacy Weiner starting a Soap SACK movement. Now I can practice my stitches, get instant gratification (they work up super quick), and feel like a do-gooder. Win, win, win!
SACK stands for Serving A Community through Kindness. The charity encourages crocheters and knitters to make the cozies, fill with packaged soap, and donate to your local food pantry. Weiner explains that basic toiletries promote good personal hygiene and raises self esteem. Soap is not often donated to pantries and is a much needed and requested commodity. To learn more about how to donate please visit Lion Brand’s blog post http://www.lionbrand.com/blog/charity-project-make-a-soap-sack/ To view the FREE version of this pattern please visit https://www.crochetwithmarybeth.com/category/free-patterns/charity/
And if you need a nice quick teacher gift (Hey mom, teacher appreciation day is tomorrow. I need something nice for Miss. Stephanie) grab one of the soap cozies from your pile of SACKs and throw some fancy soap in it! Who doesn’t love a handmade, useful gift that smells nice?!

How does a digital download work?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Once your purchase is complete you'll immediately see a "View Your Files" link. Click the link and you will be taken to the "Downloads" page. Your file will be waiting here for you to click and download. Confirmation of your payment must be completed by Etsy before downloads are available. This usually happens immediately but if it doesn't, don't panic, just wait a few minutes and they will appear magically.
You can also find your downloads by visiting the "Purchase and Reviews" section of your Etsy account.
AND you will receive an email with a download notification which will also contain a link to the download.
Still nervous about downloading files? Etsy has a great article that will ease your mind here https://www.etsy.com/ca/help/article/3949
That's three ways to download. But if you still have trouble etsy convo me and I will help you.
And if all else fails I will happily refund your money.
