You have great comedic timing. I think you can make crochet talk a comedy genre! (You also remind me of Leanne Morgan with your spot on punchline delivery!

[@therumimillcrochet]

What a wonderfully sweet compliment! I just love Leanne! ❤️ I thought the crochet space needed some laughter, I’m hoping I can keep bringing smiles while we sit and play with our yarn. 🥰🩵🧶

This Video just popped up in my recommended list and I'm SO glad it did! I love your humour! Toilet roll cover doll? I still have nightmares. lol Love the book reviews too. This made my day.

[@therumimillcrochet]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I need to do an updated book review, there’s sooooo many more to add to the list now. And it’s always nice knowing, I wasn’t alone in being terrified in a bathroom because of a doll. 🤣😂❤️ So glad you found me!☺️

[@sandie13rez]

Oh my gosh!! You are so funny!! I have a confession to make ~~ not only did my mother have a toilet paper doll in her bathroom, so did I and my 3 sisters also!! I was born in 1952 (makes me 71) so I lived thru the toilet paper cover madness & I survived!! 🤣 Over those crazy years, I made the holiday ones & plenty of the dolls, witches being my favorite. Keep up the fun & entertaining videos. BTW, I really like your sweater.

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh my dear one!! I am soooo glad you were not only subjected to, but participated and survived the crochet toilet paper craze. That is a true testiment to your strength and willingness to adapt. 😍♥️ I’m so glad you found me and got some giggles in your day. Smiles are important. Thank you for the compliments. ♥️And most of my shirts come from QVC, my mother is an addict and has passed on her tv shopping gene to me. 😂🤣

PS: I TRULY relate to “monster mama”, too! We had four sons in 9 years; now three grandsons under 5. I’m ABSOLUTELY NOT raising the “grands”, but still. Very very relatable. Very. Not sure why it took me too long to find your channel, but I’m SO GLAD I did! ☺️🫶🏻🧶

Honey, when you get to heaven they are gonna give you the biggest and most puffy cloud around with the best view and a guiltless all you can eat buffet 24/7. I’m so glad you found me too…not to mention we have shared toilet paper doll experiences. 🥴🧻🧶🩵🩵

In Germany we kept a roll of toiletpaper in the car. I still have one crochet in a blackforest cake with whipped cream and cherries on top. Just in case somebody would need some tp in the car... 😊 I love your videos. I have to binge watch some to catch up. Many greetings from Germany zo you by Heidi ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@therumimillcrochet]

lol! Poop! It’s never not funny. 😜💩 And I don’t think I have seen the snowman by Robin, I’ll have to look for it. Thanks for the tip! 😉 Have a great week!🩵

[@marcigitler3187]

Thank you for the laughs!! OMG, I was always creeped out by those toilet paper doll covers. My gmoms had one that was so old the hair was a mess and the one eye was always stuck. I just started making a ballon dog for a client and now I only see it as intestines in my hands!! Def have to buy the Monsters book. FYI- I lost one eye when I was in my teens and love that guy with the pop out eye😂. Thanks for another fun video!

[@therumimillcrochet]

Yep….intestines baby. You are making a poop shoot. 😂🤣 but at least now you can laugh at the process. You are my people!!! I’m so sorry you lost an eye, but I’m so glad you found me and can laugh at the hard stuff. You definitely need the monsters books. They are so fun and quirky. You’re gonna need to pop a monsters eye out for Christmas now. A new tradition. So glad you’re here. ❤️❤️❤️

[@anne-mariesmith2007]

I need the toilet roll book! Just think of the Christmas presents you can make😂

[@jeniphirtaylor-mcintire81]

You are so funny! When you said the monster could go under the Xmess tree, I immediately thought of adding hangers to the eyes and putting them on the tree. Then making more eyes and hanging those on the tree. Then more eyes. Only eyes. Fantastic.

[@therumimillcrochet]

Yesssssss! Do it!! It would be a show stopper for sure. You could leave it up all year and change the eye colors for the seasons. Pastels in the spring, red and green for Christmas, oranges and browns for thanksgiving. Truly, you would be the talk of all the town. 😜💗👀and it would be worth it. 🤣😉

Nothing said "Merry Christmas" like the holiday toilet paper doll my mom had in our bathroom. Somehow I ended up with that fabulous piece of...decor. I have that tp cover book but haven't made anything out of it yet. I bought it just before the big C hit. Then everyone was talking about toilet paper and I couldn't bring myself to crochet anything to do with tp. ❤ I love your videos! 🙂

[@therumimillcrochet]

Hi Cindy, another great video! 🤗 I never had anyone in my family have crochet in the bathroom, but I love all the older looking patterns and even the dolls with the blinking eyes 👀 If I made something like that, I don't think I could bring myself to keep it there though. My family would just have to hunt for their TP in other rooms of the house 😂 I definitely have an addiction with snowmen too, I have a decent collection for Christmas time too ⛄ 🥰

[@therumimillcrochet]

See Julie, we were meant to be friends. Crochet, books, and now snowmen….😍💜⛄️ And as for blinking eye dolls and bathrooms….agreed. If eyes move and they aren’t yours or living, nope, nope, nope. Out of the bathroom they go. 👀😜❤️

[@deannadreamden-zu6ws]

I made one of the toilet paper roll dolls in the early 90’s. More to scar my husband not my kids 😂

[@therumimillcrochet]

I like your thinking🤣😂. You’ve given me ideas now🤔😂❤️

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

Love! I actually had a toilet paper crochet doll in my room, thanks to my aunt. It was yellow because my favorite color is yellow. I'm sure she coordinated with my mom to make it match my room. 😳 I enjoy your video! 😁 Thanks for sharing! 🤟🏻

[@therumimillcrochet]

I’m betting you are a very strong person. Because it takes a person of strong mental character to sleep with a doll like that in your room. I’m sure it was made with love in mind….but love does odd things at times. 🤣😂💗💗 Glad you’re here!! 😁

[@crochet_critters_canada]

Remember the matching coloured toilet paper under the creepy doll covers?! 😂😂

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh, yes. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 And remember when you could buy it in colors and scents, until they figured out that no matter what color or scent it was…it still cleaned up nether regions and now it could also cause infections. 🤣😂🤦🏻‍♀️

I bet you could do it in dk and it would end up a mini. I had to see mine together. That guy was very stubborn…just like an intestine, ya know?🤣😂

[@andreamagill7034]

Thank you a super informative video. Yes, my grandmother had a pink toilet paper cover. She had lost most of her sight and crocheted mats with a thick yarn by touch. Thanks for showing the books. I will add some to my wish list. I didn’t know monsters can be cute 😊🧶❤️

[@therumimillcrochet]

I’m so glad you have those memories. Several of my mom’s friends who are blind can crochet, but my mom’s dexterity just isn’t there. But I’m always amazed even though I’ve been around it my entire life when I see visually impaired people crochet. The monsters in those books are adorable. If you are on Amazon, if you scroll down the page, there are photos of all of them. Enjoy! 💗💗

I asked AI to write a fairy crochet pattern. Here is what it wrote. I'm not able to see if it will work or not ... Written by AI Cute Amigurumi Fairy Pattern Materials: Yarn in skin color, dress color, wing color, hair color, and a shimmering or sparkly yarn for magical details. Crochet hook suitable for your yarn size, typically 3.5mm for amigurumi. Safety eyes (8mm). Black or pink embroidery thread or yarn for the mouth. Fiberfill stuffing. Yarn needle. Stitch marker. Optional: Small bead or charm for the fairy wand. Abbreviations: ch = chain sc = single crochet inc = increase (2 sc in one stitch) dec = decrease (sc two stitches together) st(s) = stitch(es) hdc = half double crochet dc = double crochet sl st = slip stitch Pattern: Head (Skin Color): R1: 6 sc in a magic circle (6 sts). R2: inc in each st around (12 sts). R3: [1 sc, inc] x 6 (18 sts). R4: [2 sc, inc] x 6 (24 sts). R5-R8: sc around (24 sts). R9: [2 sc, dec] x 6 (18 sts). R10: [1 sc, dec] x 6 (12 sts). Start stuffing the head. R11: dec x 6 (6 sts). Finish off. Body (Dress Color): R1: 6 sc in a magic circle (6 sts). R2: inc in each st around (12 sts). R3: [1 sc, inc] x 6 (18 sts). R4-R7: sc around (18 sts). R8: [1 sc, dec] x 6 (12 sts). R9: sc around (12 sts). Start stuffing the body. Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Arms (Skin Color, Make 2): R1: 4 sc in a magic circle (4 sts). R2-R4: sc around (4 sts). Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Wings (Wing Color and Sparkly Yarn): Chain 12, join with a sl st to form a ring. In the ring: (ch 3, dc, ch 3, sl st) x 6. This will give the wings a delicate, webbed look. Finish off. Hair (Hair Color): Cut lengths of yarn about 10 inches long. Take a strand, fold in half, and hook through a stitch on the head. Pull the yarn tails through the loop, and tighten. Continue this method until you have a full head of hair. Trim or style as desired. Wand (Sparkly Yarn): Ch 10. Finish off. Attach a small bead or charm to the tip to represent the magic orb. Face: Place safety eyes between R6 and R7, about 6 stitches apart. Stitch a cute smile with the embroidery thread or yarn. Assembly: Attach the head to the body. Sew the arms to each side of the body. Attach the wings to the back of the body. Arrange and secure the hair on the head. If desired, sew the wand to one of the fairy's hands. This amigurumi fairy is sure to spread a sprinkle of magic wherever she goes! Enjoy your crafting adventure.

It looks like it might almost resemble a fairy. I might need to make it, just to see, for my own curiosity. The head looks like it’ll be huge with an itty bitty body. Yea….I might just need to do this to see. 😜😂💗

Don't forget the tea pot covers. Or was this just an Australian thing?

[@therumimillcrochet]

No teapot covers in our family, hot tea wasn’t big in our house. But I know some friends that did. Here in the south it was dolls and doily’s….doily’s were everywhere!! 😁

[@creative2716]

I still love teapot covers, but don't own a teapot. Explain that one. I have a whistling teakettle, but it is placed on burner on stove to heat water. Can't put a cover on that...fire!

Hello I’m new to your channel and I really am enjoying it. I have a question and wonder if you can help. I am making the whale from pica pau 3 like you made and I am struggling with keeping the colors from leaning is the best description I can think of. The white is coming up to the top of the head and the blue from the top is going down on the right side. Is there a way to prevent this that I’m missing. I’m following the pattern exactly but on the left side the white is more visible on the top of the whales head. I’m probably not making sense so it’s ok if you don’t understand just struggling with this

[@therumimillcrochet]

Yes, that trust drove me crazy too. Mine is still there, if I were to do the pattern again, I’d adjust the stitches to where it was more even. But to help it this time I just surfaced crocheted on top of the color change. The twist is still there, but it did help a tad. If I just don’t look at it straight on I’m happy. lol thank you for being here! ❤️❤️

[@tinanix7924]

@@therumimillcrochet I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one . I started adjusting my stitches and that has helped also I went back and read in the book where she said this would happen. I thought maybe there was trick to keep this from happening but so far I’ve just eye balled it

[@therumimillcrochet]

@@tinanix7924 nope. Not just you. Glad you figured out how to adjust your stitches to help correct the twist.

My ex mother in law still makes the toilet paper dolls. Thank goodness I “lost” that creepy thing when I divorced my ex.

Well, since it's probably the coffee that sent you to the bathroom....

You have food toiletroll covers in the toilet to feed the doll.
