Make your own cute crocheted granny square pencil case with this free pattern – a perfect blend of style and functionality! Gather up some scraps of cotton DK weight yarn in multiple colors, your trusty 4 mm crochet hook, two fabric pieces for the lining, and a 12″ zipper. You’ll also need a sewing machine to attach the zipper. Start by crocheting six granny squares, each consisting of three rounds. Then, join them into two sets of three using the “join as you go” technique. Finally, assemble your pencil case. Not only will your kids adore this unique creation for storing their school supplies, but it’s also so much fun to make, especially for crochet beginners. It’s also an excellent opportunity to put your yarn scraps to good use.
