This pattern was part of a live crochet event from Craftsy and the Creative Crochet Corner.

This pattern is free when signing up for the Creative Crochet Corner newsletter.

You can watch the replay of the live tutorial over on the Creative Crochet Corner website, or over here, on YouTube.

This playful bag can house all the school supplies: glue, scissors, crayons, markers, erasers, tape, and of course pencils! The extra details, such as stripes and spike stitches, keep the crocheting interesting, and make the finished piece really stand out. Be sure to watch the live video tutorial for tips.
