Not only do these covers protect your tissue boxes from dust and add a cozy feel to any room, but they also make fantastic handmade gifts for family and friends. Whether you're a seasoned crocheter or a newbie looking for a simple and creative project, crafting a unique tissue box cover is a wonderful way to showcase your creativity and enhance your living space. So grab your yarn and hook, and let's get crocheting!
Gauge: 2″ = 9st x 10 rows
G hook
Worsted Weight Yarn (I used Caron Simply Soft)
Notes: Top square is worked first in rows, then sc evenly around square in the round. Body is then worked top down, in the round.
Circles should be made and attached before making the sides/body (I did it afterwards but I probably made more work for myself doing it that way). Circles are attached (leaving a small gap for stuffing), stuffed, then finish attaching.
