5 Free Crochet Pencil Case Patterns

It's that time of year again where we all rush out to buy new stationery and shiny shoes for our kids! Why not crochet your children or grandchildren a fun pencil case to store all their new pens in.  

When you crochet a pencil case you can choose the colours, school colours, team colours or even just using up all those little bits of yarn you have left over. Or why not get the kids involved and let them pick out their own favourite yarn colours.
