Back-to-School Crochet Patterns
“Apple” Apple Cozy
These adorable apple cozies are great for keeping apples from getting bruised while bouncing around in backpacks, lunchboxes, and briefcases. This apple themed one is perfect for fall and back to school time. And don’t forget an apple for the teacher!
Flower Paper Clips
It’s sometimes the simple everyday things that make a difference. Make paperwork more fun with these pretty flower paper clips. They work up so quickly too so you can make a whole bunch!
Mason Jar Cozies
No desk is complete without pens and pencils. Grab a mason jar and stitch up these colorful cozies to add some fun and color to homework time. Even better, you can use up some scrap yarn you have lying around.
Owl Apple Cozy
This apple cozy is perfect for owl lovers! I think they are absolutely adorable and actually designed this one for me to use. But be warned … everyone will be asking you to make one!
Striped Pencil Case
Of all the back-to-school crochet patterns I share, these striped pencil cases are what readers seem to love the most! They offer so much opportunity for personalization … think favorite colors, school colors, sports teams! They also make a great stashbuster.
Minion Pencil Case
This minion pencil case is a spin off of the striped case above but designed for the minion lover in your life.
Felted Pencil Case
For those who enjoy a more classic style, this felted case is for you. It’s a quick and easy crochet pattern and a great opportunity to try wet felting your crochet. And if you’re feeling super adventurous, you can even step it up with a pretty needle felted embellishment. Did I mention it also makes a great case for crochet hooks!!
Monster Apple Cozy
These monster cozies are ‘scary’ sweet! You’re little ones will love finding one in their lunch boxes. They are especially fun as Halloween approaches. Choose from these two designs: Blue Chomper or One-Eyed Greenie.
Flower Push Pins
Pin up important papers and reminders with these pretty push pins. They are sure to catch your eye to those things you want to remember.
