Publisher Comments:

Has your toilet roll been left exposed to the elements too long? Give your bathroom a fabulous retro touch with the most iconic of bathroom accessories: the toilet roll cover! These 30 knitted and crocheted projects are great fun to make and show-off—youll want to follow guests into the restroom just to see what their response is! There is a comprehensive techniques section to get you started, and each pattern is fully illustrated, so even absolute beginning stitchers will find it easy to create their own quirky works of art. The wonderful range of toilet paper-warming knitted novelties in this tongue-in-cheek guide include a Zig Zag Sweater, a cute little piggie, a tabby-striped kitty cat…even a little monkey going to his graduation, complete with tassel and robe.

Tracey, May 21, 2008 (view all comments by Tracey)
My goodness, this book isn't nearly so dorky as you may think! There are plenty of animal oriented covers, as the cover implies, but there are also some more chic and grown up looking covers. One I find quite pleasing is covered with crocheted flowers. This book includes both crochet and knitting. I've never felt the need to hide my extra toilet rolls, but now that I've seen this book I'm inspired to do so. I haven't made any of these, so I can't say if the patterns work out correctly.
