Color Block Backpack Crochet Pattern

November 12, 2018 by Shellie Wilson


If you’re like us and always going places, you’ll need something to take along with you. This crochet bag pattern is just the thing for bringing all the gear you need to live your day to day life. And just the thing for doing it in the cutest style possible. A backpack lets you take your life with you. Might as well do it looking adorable.

The moss stitch adds texture and detailing that makes your rucksack stand out from the crowd. Combine that with the color blocking details, and you’re all set to turn heads no matter where you’re going next. It’s your backpack of attack.

Get crocheting – choose three of your favorite complementary colors, and you’re ready to go. You even get to learn how to make drawstring ties so you can make sure all your valuables are nice and safe inside your rucksack.

Why Brava Yarn Is a Great Choice for Crochet Projects

If your crochet project needs plenty of colour, easy-care yarn and a sensible price, Brava is one of those dependable acrylic yarns worth keeping in mind. Even better, Brava is the Yarn of the Month and is currently 20% off throughout September, with no discount code required.

Brava is a soft, premium acrylic yarn designed for projects that will be used, washed and loved. That makes it particularly useful for crochet blankets, granny-square projects, amigurumi, children’s clothing, baby gifts and everyday accessories.

Why Crocheters Will Love Brava

One of Brava’s biggest selling points is its generous colour range. Granny-square blankets and colourwork projects can quickly require a surprisingly large selection of shades, so having plenty of coordinating colours available makes planning your palette much easier.

It is also available in four different yarn weights. You can choose a lighter option for garments and accessories, a classic weight for blankets and toys or a heavier yarn when you want a quick and cosy project.

Because Brava is acrylic, finished items are easier to care for than projects made with more delicate fibres. This is especially helpful when crocheting baby blankets, toys, pet blankets or gifts for people who may not want to hand-wash their crochet.

What Would I Crochet With Brava?

I would use Brava for a colourful granny-square blanket, a washable baby afghan or a collection of amigurumi toys. It would also be a practical option for donation projects because it combines softness, durability and affordability.

The current 20% discount makes September a good time to experiment with a new colour palette or stock up for a larger crochet blanket. If you have a project sitting in your queue that needs multiple balls of yarn, this might be the little push you needed to finally start it.
