Crochet Caterpillar Eyeglass Holder Pattern PDF, Easy Scrap Yarn Glasses Holder, Hanging Eyeglass Organizer, Beginner Gift Idea

Crochet a cheerful caterpillar that holds up to 5 pairs of eyeglasses. This easy, fun PDF pattern is a great way to use up your scrap cotton yarn.

Each colorful body segment is a little pocket for a pair of glasses. The pockets also work for sunglasses, a phone or other small treasures. The finished caterpillar is about 6” x 20” and hangs from a twig with twine. It comes with crocheted oak leaves, an I-cord antenna, a bow tie, little feet and a tiny pair of glasses of his own.
