Crochet a no-seam tissue box cover using granny squares!
This clever and fun project is perfect for using up leftover yarn and adding a handmade touch to your home.

This is a PDF crochet pattern for a square tissue box cover (approx. 12 × 12 cm / 4.7 x 4.7 in), worked from classic granny squares and joined without sewing.
You’ll also learn how to adjust the height to fit your own box and choose between a scalloped or simple edge finish.

A rectangular version is also available in my shop!

✨ What you’ll learn:

  • How to crochet granny squares and half-grannies
  • A clean, no-seam joining technique
  • How to finish with or without a scalloped border
  • The standing dc technique (prettier than ch3 at the beginning of a round)

What’s included:

  • 13 pages of detailed written instructions
  • Over 40 step-by-step photos
  • 3 clear diagrams to guide you
  • Blocking instructions
  • No sewing required!

Materials:

  • Square tissue box (approx. 12 x 12 cm / 4.7 in)
  • 3 mm crochet hook
  • Cotton yarn in 8 colors (I used Happy Cotton by DMC, but you can also use Catona (Scheepjes), Phil Coton 3 (Phildar), Coral (Durable), or Must-Have (Yarn & Colors))

Skill level:
Advanced beginner – You should be comfortable with the basics (magic ring, dc, ch, sl st)

Languages included: French, English (US terms), and Spanish.
