Albert Einstein Toilet Roll Cover
A crochet pattern of the genius Albert Einstein, recreated as a toilet roll cover. He would enhance any bathroom!
I have designed this pattern to be manageable at intermediate level. To complete it you will need to be able to make a magic ring, chain, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, work around post, work into front or back loop, increase, decrease, and have basic sewing skills. The pattern contains full step-by-step instructions, tips and photographs as a guide. You will find many useful tutorials online if you are unfamiliar with any of the stitches.

-
Double knit yarn in black, light grey, dark grey, white and skin colour (I used Stylecraft Special)
-
3mm crochet hook
-
Wool/tapestry sewing needle
-
Toy stuffing
-
2 x 8mm black safety eyes

A toilet roll!
