Vst Boutique Tissue Box Cover

This boutique tissue box cover is fast and easy to make and is made with a brass ring at the top so the hole will keep it's shape when pulling a tissue out of the box. I used scraps that did not have labels for this pattern so I cannot tell you what brand or color acrylic yarn it is.

Making Sure You Don't Run Out
Buy More Than Enough Yarn When buying yarn, for a specific project, buy one more skein than the pattern calls for, that way, you will know you have enough and any left overs can be used in a scrap project! This goes for any other type of craft supply you need to get a certain quantity of. Just get a little more than the project calls for.
