This is a great pattern for diaper covers!! It was easy to understand, there are measurements too, so you can be sure you are making it the right size!! That’s a huge plus!! :)

For the tail I made a magic ring, did 8 sc into ring, the increased to 10 sc, and continued to to sc around until it was about one inch shorter than a pipe cleaner.

I twisted 2 pipe cleaners together to make them thicker, and folded the bottom end down a little bit, just to hide the pointy end, wrapped it loosely with fiber fill and stuffed it in the tail. Then I folded the top of the pipe cleaner down about an inch, so it was even with the opening of the tail, and added more filling near the opening, so the tail wouldn’t flop. And sewed the tail to the cover. See photos for placement.
