This post is for a crochet toilet paper cover.

Rustic Crochet Toilet Paper Cover: Free Pattern!

Supplies You Will Need:

  • Crochet hook: 5 mm
  • Worsted weight yarn in any color(s) you choose
  • Yarn needle
  • Stitch marker
  • Scissors
  • Twine
  • Fabric glue (optional)

Crochet Abbreviations:

  • MR- Magic Ring
  • Inc- Increase
  • Dec- Decrease
  • Ch- Chain
  • Sc- Single Crochet
  • St(s)- Stitch(es)
  • Sl st- Slip Stitch
  • FO- Fasten Off
  • BLO- Back Loop Only
  • HDC- Half Double Crochet
***The entire pattern is worked in HDC stitches.***

Crochet Toilet Paper Cover:

  1. MR hdc 8                                                                                                       (8)
  2. Inc hdc x 8                                                                                                    (16)
  3. 1 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                              (24)
  4. 2 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                             (32)
  5. 3 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                             (40)
  6. 4 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                             (48)
  7. 5 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                             (56)
  8. 6 hdc, 1 inc x 8                                                                                             (64)
* Please Note*

This pattern was designed using a double roll size of toilet paper. For smaller or bigger rolls, your pattern may be a little bit different. Basically, keep increasing your magic ring until the circle fits to the edges of the toilet paper roll when placed on top of the roll.

Then, proceed to Round 9 below:

9. BLO hdc around                                                                                                 (64)

10- 16. Hdc around                                                                                                 (64)

You can make this section as long or as short as you need for your toilet paper roll. Once your rows reach the bottom of the toilet paper roll, you can fasten off and weave in the ends.

Finishing Up:

  • Place the toilet paper cover over the toilet roll. Measure a length of twine that is long enough to wrap around the toilet roll twice (or more if you want longer tails).
  • Cut as many strands as you want to create a thick, farmhouse style bow. I cut three separate strands.
  • Now, using all strands at the same time, wrap around the toilet paper cover and tie into a bow. It takes some fiddling to get the bow exactly how you want it.
  • When you are happy with the bow and placement, you can secure the bow to the toilet paper cover by placing a dab of fabric glue on the knot of the bow and gluing it in place.
