How to Crochet a Pencil Holder!

Are you a cro­chet begin­ner look­ing for a fun project? Wel­come to our free cro­chet pat­tern tuto­r­i­al on cre­at­ing a cro­chet pen­cil hold­er, a per­fect size for all your school sup­plies. We’ll guide you through the process using sin­gle cro­chets and the mag­ic ring tech­nique. Get ready to make a styl­ish and func­tion­al addi­tion to your desk!

To start this cro­chet project, you’ll need some yarn. We rec­om­mend using yel­low and pink yarn for a fun way to add col­or to your school sea­son. Grab your H cro­chet hook and make a mag­ic ring. If you’re unsure how to do this, don’t wor­ry; we have a video tuto­r­i­al on our YouTube chan­nel that can help you.

Crochet a Pencil Holder

Use a stitch mark­er to keep track of your first stitch. Con­tin­ue work­ing in sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es, mak­ing sure to cro­chet in the back loop for a nice tex­ture.

As you cro­chet, con­sid­er adding a col­or change for a more excit­ing design. You can cre­ate fun col­ored pen­cil cas­es and even exper­i­ment with granny squares for a unique touch.

For a per­fect size, aim for a total of 2nd ch stitch­es and the cor­rect num­ber of rows. For a neat fin­ish, make sure your final row has a straight edge.

This pen­cil hold­er is great for pen­cils and cro­chet hooks. I used an H hook. Use a small­er hook to make it small­er, but try to fol­low this pat­tern. If you need more assis­tance, please watch the video uploaded below. It mea­sures about 3 inch­es across on the bot­tom and, 4.5 inch­es in height, and 12 inch­es around. This cro­chet pen­cil hold­er is per­fect for all your pen­cils and pens. Are your pens and pen­cils always get­ting lost in the clut­ter? Cro­chet a pen­cil orga­niz­er that will keep your pens and pen­cils orga­nized and eas­i­ly acces­si­ble. This hold­er is easy to make and eas­i­ly cus­tomized to fit your needs.

Let’s move on to the sec­ond pan­el, just like the first. When you fin­ish both pan­els, it’s time to sew them togeth­er. You can use a tapes­try nee­dle and yarn strands of your choice, mak­ing sure to secure any loose ends.

Attach a small­er but­ton on the front pan­el for the but­ton clo­sure and cre­ate a but­ton loop on the back. This adds a great touch to your cro­chet pen­cil pouch.
