Back To School Crochet Patterns

As the summer draws to a close, it’s time to start thinking about going back to school. While many of us associate this time of year with new backpacks, school supplies, and clothes, it’s also an excellent opportunity to start new crochet projects. Whether you’re a student or a parent, crochet can be a great way to unwind after a busy day of classes or work.

To help get you started, we’ve put together a list of the best back-to-school crochet patterns out there. From backpacks to pencil cases, these patterns are perfect for getting organized and staying stylish throughout the school year. We’ve also included some fun accessories like bookmarks and keychains to add a personal touch to your school supplies.

But, we also want to make sure that you’re considering the safety of the crochet items you make for back-to-school. Be mindful of the materials you use, making sure they are safe for children to handle, and be sure to follow safety guidelines, especially when making baby items like pacifier clips or toys.

So, whether you’re looking to create something practical or just want to add a little handmade flair to your school supplies, these back-to-school crochet patterns are sure to inspire you.

All the kids are back in school or headed there very soon.  Here are some crochet ideas for you for teachers, kids, whatever.  You’re sure to find some crochet inspiration (and a few patterns) herein.

This apple and pencil are very cute.  You can purchase the pattern here.

The ever practical pencil holder can be worked in your kid’s favorite colors.  Makes a nice gift for any age student.  Hmmm.  This would work to hold crochet hooks too!  Get the free pattern here.

My boys used to overdose on Lego’s.  This backpack would have been a big hit with both of them.  If your daughter is a Lego-maniac, just change the colors if you want.  Another free pattern to be found here.  Rather than using this as a school book bag, why not corral all those colorful little blocks in this easy to carry bag?

Finally, I just had to show you this cute, cute backpack for a girl.  We all have partial skeins of yarn hanging around, don’t we?  This would be a perfect project for that – or make it all one color or two colors to suit your little princess.  I think this would be perfect to carry around a leotard and dance shoes.  A nice carry-along project for all those things your little one needs to carry along for her day.  Free pattern.

So…which one you gonna make?
