    The Great Soaping Disaster of March 2019

    @KiwiMoose - first - great new picture! Second - you kill me with your "fails" - I should fail so bad! Can you describe how you did that? It sounds like you layered the black and ivory in a pitcher and then??? Is the picture in #11 the soap in #1 cut? I assume you worked at light trace...

    Hello. This knitter wants to be a soaper.

    Weird Experience with Salt Bar

    Thank you @earlene I hid it from myself LOL I have not checked! I put my trust in the soap gods. I DID find out that the indigo I ordered was synthetic, NOT the true powder (doggone it!) and once place I read said that it will stain the user. So who knows, when I uncover it again in some...
