you may ask yourself: what is a soap saver? a soap saver is functionally a washcloth. put a bar of soap in it, get it wet in the shower, lather and rinse. it's an alternative to a washcloth/loofah/sponge, it stores your bar soap so that it doesn't go flying across the shower/tub, and when your bar soap is skinny enough to start breaking, you're able to use it until it 100% disappears. it's also epic because bar soap is in most cases way cheap compared to body wash + there's no plastic involved unless ur buying bar soap in plastic so if that's important to you then let me put you on. this is a super simple pattern, and when you're ready to wash it (i usually do once i run out of a bar of soap before replacing it) you can just throw it in the washer/dryer with your towels and it washes up great!
