'Godfrey' the #medieval crocheted poodle toilet-roll cover.

@Richard_Littler were there toilet rolls in the Middle Ages? Or am I being thick?
@pgcd @Richard_Littler There were, but they were made of linen cloth and you had to wash them afterwards. It would be several centuries before single-use toilet paper was invented.
@acb @Richard_Littler ohhh that's interesting! I also hope that Godfrey's purpose was to keep the clean ones clean.
But then again, I understand crochet to be a wonderful mystery and I shouldn't assume limits to its power.
