About This Angry TP Cal Amigurumi Pattern
This pattern teaches you how to crochet a tiny angry toilet paper roll ornament complete with a tan core and a long white sheet. The design uses simple chains and half-double crochet rows to create both pieces and an easy assembly method to roll and glue the parts together. It is playful, portable, and makes a hilarious handmade gift or tree ornament.
You will cut little facial expressions from black felt and glue them on for a clean look that won’t show when the paper unrolls. The pattern is beginner-friendly and requires only basic stitches and household tools.
Why You'll Love This Angry TP Cal Amigurumi Pattern
I absolutely love this pattern because it takes just a few simple stitches and turns them into a whimsical little character that brings smiles. I enjoy how fast it is to make, so you can whip up several in an afternoon for gifts or decorations. The felt face option lets me add personality quickly without complicated embroidery. Most of all, I adore the playful concept — a tiny angry toilet paper that’s both funny and adorable.
Switch Things Up
I love changing the facial expression to give each roll a different mood; try surprised, sleepy, or happy faces instead of angry.
I often switch the white paper yarn for a slightly thinner yarn to create a more delicate, mini version perfect for keychains.
If you want a chunkier look, I use bulky yarn and a larger hook to make a squishier, more plush roll.
I sometimes embroider a tiny monogram on the inner unrolled piece for personalization instead of using felt.
I like to add a tiny ribbon or bow to the center of the roll for a festive touch during holidays.
To make a set, I change the tan core color to grey or brown for variety and display them together on a garland.
I recommend experimenting with glitter glue on felt faces for seasonal sparkle, but test on scraps first to ensure it doesn’t seep through.
For a safer child-friendly version, I sew felt pieces on with tight stitches instead of gluing them.
I sometimes stuff the roll slightly before sealing the seam to keep the center firm if I plan to give it as a durable ornament.
You can also turn this into a hanging gift tag by sewing a small pocket on the unrolled section to tuck a tiny note inside.
Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them
✗ Not counting your starting chains carefully can change the width of the paper; recount your chains and ensure you begin from the second chain as instructed.
✗ Skipping the instruction to turn and CH 1 between rows may create an uneven edge; always CH 1 and turn your work before beginning the next row.
✗ Not leaving a long tail on the tan roll will make sewing the seam difficult; remember to leave a long tail for sewing and fasten off only after sewing.
✗ Using safety eyes or embroidery thread for the face risks showing through when the paper is unrolled; cut facial features from felt and glue them instead to prevent show-through.
