Knit or Crochet Poodle Tissue Cover No 5223

Poodle Cover-Up:   This pattern gives two sets of directions - knit and crochet - to create the cute poodle cover-ups pictured.    Both are easy patterns worked in Knitting Worsted.   Actual size is not given, but based on the age, this would cover the standard - not jumbo sized roll. 

This is a Mail Order pattern purchased through newspapers and catalogs.  The pattern was marketed as Anne Cabot 5223 in 1966.   The newspaper description:  "If you either knit or crochet, you'll be able to make one of these poodle cover-ups for that extra roll of bathroom tissue. Make extras for gift giving".   This pattern was included in the Anne Cabot 1973 (Fall/Winter) Needlwork Magazine.
