A friend of mine has this toilet
paper cover that her Mom named "Junior".

needed a new one... so I created this pattern using hers as a model. |

POM POM
Wind Pink yarn 75 times
around a piece of 3-4 inch wide cardboard. I wrapped it around my hand.
Slide the wrapped yarn off and tie a long piece of yarn around the center of
the bunch.
Cut both ends of the folded yarn so that you have a bunch of individual pieces.
This should begin to look like a pom pom. Now hold the long yarn strands and
shake it over a trash can then use scissors to trim it till it is round. Now
use the long strands to tie it to the hat.

ASSEMBLY
Using a yarn needle
with the same yarn, sew LEGS and ARMS onto BODY using the photo as a guide.
Sew the legs to the last round of the body. Sew the arms to the back of the
body leaving 2-3 sts between them. Tack the arms to the sides of the body.
EYES
I didn't want
to actually glue the eyes onto the body. I wanted the eyes to be removeable,
so I glued a piece of yarn on the back of each eye using hot glue. After the
glue dried I tied the eyes onto the body using a bow so they could be easily
removed in order to wash Junior.
NOSE
Use the yarn needle
and white yarn to satin stitch a nose onto the body.
LIPS

cotton and the steel hook, size 1, ch6.
Sc in the 2nd ch from the hook. Sc in the next 3chs.

6" for sewing.
Using the yarn needle and the yarn tail, tack the lips onto the body using the
photo as a guide.
