Adventures in Soap-on-a-Rope Take 2

Here are my first 10 Soap-on-a-Rope products... in no particular order.  Some are crocheted, most are knit, but all of them hold soap!  




I have really enjoyed working on these.  Often I tag them in Facbook posts as #SoapSocks and I love to share the designs I work out.  You will probably see there are some that are similar.  I took the same design and made knit and crochet versions in the same yarns, so there are two "mirror pairs" of Soap-on-a-Ropes in the picture.  At the top there is the swimming pool color yarn and at the bottom is the white, orange, and blue color Soap-on-a-Ropes, each knit and crochet.  I'll have to admit that those were fun to work up simply to see the differences and similarities between the "mirror pairs."

I hope you enjoyed these.  As always, for more information contact Tabi at Tabi's Creating Adventures!


Blessings and Peace!

Adventures in Soap-on-a-Rope

I am excited and pleased to announce these new products to my line.  I am adding them slowly by slowly to each Facebook and Etsy. 

After working with The Soap Crate in Kingston, WA, I decided I wanted to make my own Soap-on-a-Rope bags to take advantage of the bath soaps I bought.  Since then I have thought about making other Soap-on-a-Rope bags for the business, but didn't until this last week.  Now I will have Soap-on-a-Rope gift sets at my next vendor event!!  These are only the first three I have made.  I will write another post to share the other colors before the vendor event.




I hope you enjoyed this post!  For more information on vendor events and opportunities to interact with Tabi's Creating Adventures, please log on to Facebook or Etsy.  



Blessings and Peace!

Hanging Towel Sets - Never Too Early for Christmas and Simple Luxury

As you may have noticed, I do enjoy hanging towels (as per inspiration from my Mom).  These sets are some I have been waiting to work on.  So many things to do, so little time!



The snowman (set of 2) is part of a gift for a friend.  I can now rest knowing that I have completed this part of the gift.  Though I must say it was nice that I had to wait because I found some other little things that go perfectly with this towel set.  I can't wait to give it to her!



On the other hand, I have this set of 4 hanging towels which are my first attempt at knitting cables for a product.  I think they came out quite wonderfully!  I am thinking, though, I would like to try a different stitch combination for the handles.

I can't wait to share my next set of products with you!  They are new to Tabi's Creating Adventures and I have many colors with which to experiment!  For the most up-to-date pictures, be sure to check out my Facebook page (listed below)!


Blessings and Peace!

A Little Something for Me

So a while back (over a year ago) a lady from church gave me a gift card for a local yarn shop for my birthday.  I finally did something with the yarn I bought.  This is the first project I made for myself, a toboggan.  I was drawn to this yarn because of its unique colors and hue, heavy on the blue, light on the green, and with a hint of pink/purple.  My second project for myself was my well-known cotton cloth in the "double-stitch" pattern plus a couple of experiments in hearts.  I set the larger heart on my table and it became a coaster... cutest coaster ever, though!  I still have one more skein of cotton yarn (in different colors) and a skein of unique yarn (hand spun in Chili).








Blessings and Peace!
