I found some fun ideas for toilet paper cover but after I watched the film Pixels with my kids I had to go for the idea of the ghosts from the game PAC-MAN.
I used a toilet paper cover guide from crochetonthebrain.com to get a quick idea how best to do this but I just made it without pattern as I was using different kinds of yarn and crochet needle size. There are many toilet paper cover patterns out there, free and payed versions, so I am sure I could have found one that fit for me but I just wanted to get started and not use endless amount of time to find the one that might fit.
As I have not found the pattern for sale anywhere nor the finished product for sale, at least not when I set out to make these myself. I then wrote down how I made these when I was asked for a pattern for these and could not refer to any pattern or seller.
Here below you can find the way i did this, in Danish and in English, just scroll down do find the language you prefer. Remember to adjust this to your toilet-paper size.
