It’s never been easier to crochet a backpack with granny squares! Working with Red Heart All in One Granny Square, you’ll first make 14 motifs, then join them together using a crocheted flat seam. Once the squares are in place, it all comes together with some rounds around the top to create a drawstring closure, a top flap, straps, and a handy hanging back loop. Practice chain, double crochet, single crochet, half double crochet, and more. It’s great for students or as an anytime sack to carry all your on-the-go essentials.
