A crochet pattern of the most accomplished Jane Austen, recreated as a toilet roll cover. She would enhance any bathroom!
I have designed this pattern to be manageable at an advanced beginner/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, increase, decrease, join using single crochet 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.

  1. Double knit wool in duck-egg blue, white, brown, and skin colour;
  2. 3mm crochet hook
  3. Wool/tapestry sewing needle
  4. A little toy stuffing

  6. Some card cut into a 10cm circle and 4cm circle (or a plastic milk bottle lid works well)
  7. Some red embroidery thread
  8. A toilet roll!!
