Elongated Shell Toilet Seat Cover

This elongated shell toilet seat cover is a modification of my original shell toilet seat cover. Both patterns were designed by request.

The elongated version is quite large, even for the lid pictured above. The reason for this is because I received a request to make it fairly large. The length is okay for my lid, but there’s a lot more room for the width as mine is only 14″. I know it will fit at least a 15″ lid, but it might also stretch to a 16″.

A few of my testers found it to be quite large, and therefore, suggested to go with one round less for a smaller lid. I would say eliminate round 13 and then finish with rounds 14 and 15 if you need something smaller.
