Do you have a child starting school this year? Whether it’s a boy or a girl, they’re sure to love this cute guardian angel backpack charm! The little angel is a bit of a rascal himself and is sure to be a good friend and companion for your child. Barefoot and carrying a backpack and a school cone, he’ll accompany your little one to school every day to protect them. You can detach and open the school backpack to store a few little treasures (pebbles, coins, candies) inside.
The guardian angel is about 12 cm tall. The boy angel is made entirely in shades of blue, and the girl angel in shades of pink, but of course you can use completely different colors as well. Just a little leftover yarn is all you need!
Here is the pattern for the boy guardian angel
and here is the pattern for the girl guardian angel .

Wasti the dachshund is a fun pencil case. His belly has room for all kinds of pens, pencils, and craft supplies (scissors, glue). You can crochet Wasti in a single color or make him colorful using the schoolchild’s favorite colors. You’ll need about 1 ball (less than 50 g) of cotton yarn with a length of 125 m / 50 g, plus some leftover fluffy yarn for the ears and tail. You can also crochet the ears and tail with cotton yarn if you prefer. You’ll also need some stuffing, googly eyes, and a zipper about 12 cm long.

If you still need a little something for the school cone, I recommend these cute pencil toppers, which can be crocheted quickly and are perfect for using up leftover yarn. They aren’t too heavy, so the pencil’s center of gravity doesn’t shift too far upward, and you can still draw and write comfortably. The pencil toppers fit standard-sized graphite and colored pencils; for thicker pencils, the cover can easily be extended by a few stitches.

For beginners with some crochet experience, this is an interesting and enjoyable project.
