Lye recrystalizing?

Should I be concerned?

I let my lye mixture sit overnight, actually two batches, one in a glass container, another in plastic.

One had crystals in the liquid at the top and the other did not in the am.

They both soaped the same, but of course I worry.

floaters. They are a mystery. Theories include saponified oily residue from the container or spoon, rxn with chemicals in hard water, and probably others. Some filter them out. I just give the solution a stir and soap with it.
