Toilet tissue tube candle

[Suzee]

My grandmother used to crochet around a cardboard toilet tissue tube. She'd make it into a candle. She crocheted a base and then up the sides. She would finish it off with a red felt flame. Does anyone have a pattern for that? Thanks!

I think I saw one at Free Patterns . com

throwing in.. she probably crocheted the tube then inserted the cardboard part.. so all you would have to do is make a circle .. when its big enough to cover the end of the roll.. start crocheting in the round til its long enough .. and maybe do a ruffle or something then insert the roll...

Thank you for the info. I'll check out freepatterns, Layna. I hadn't thought of it that way, three. Makes sense. Can you tell I'm a bit rusty? LOL

This is a wonderful site! Did you see the ghost-mobile? Too cute. I would never be able to find these links on my own. You guys are wonderful.
