Wind the yarn around the paperback book (the 4.25” way) 30-40 times. Cut the yarn, thread yarn through a yarn needle and pass the needle under all the loops. Tie the end of the yarn firmly around the loops. Slide the yarn off the book and cut the loops opposite the tie. Wind the end of yarn around all the loops below the fold and fasten securely. Pass the needle through the top and use the end to sew the tassel in place at the top corner of the hat. Trim the ends neatly.

On 4th Corner Crocheters we were sharing links to bathroom tissue covers. I was wanting something very plain suitable for my son's bathroom. So came up with this one.

While I was working on it I got another idea for another one, still plain but with basketweave sides.

I will post instructions for both versions shortly.
