Whether it’s for back-to-school season or just fun day trips, a good crochet backpack pattern is something you need to have on hand.
I love that crochet bags usually pack very well and they’re breathable during the summer so you don’t feel like you’re being weighed down by your bag.
Most of these patterns use a variety of basic crochet stitches, so make sure that you know how to work a single crochet stitch, double crochet stitch, and slip stitch (sl st). Since these great patterns won’t take a long time to complete, your cute backpack is just a few steps away!
