Tissue Box Cosy

I made a tissue box cosy. This is appropriate for seasonal allegies.

I made up the pattern and it took two tries to get something right.

I used two strands of Lion Brand Fun Fur on #15 needles.

This was the first attempt I did it in pieces which meant for a lot of seams to finish at the end. Sewing seams in eyelash yarn is not a pleasant task. The design that actually works is done in the round with no seams. The fit wasn't right.

This was my swatch. This is 20 stitches. For the final version, I did it in the round & it fits much better. Plus, there are no seams.
