A black-and-white skunk adds another woodland character to a study desk. Like the companion animal designs, it stores pencils through the front and smaller items in a rear hatch.
Pattern 09 · Owl case
9. Woodland Owl Bag or Pencil Case
Listing photo: YarrrnIt on Etsy
A wide owl body with ears and a face can be made as a small bag or pencil case. The seller’s PDF includes photos, and the listing gives an eight-inch width for the finished design.

This dog-themed zippered pouch is designed for pencils and other small tools. Its amigurumi styling gives the case a soft toy-like look while keeping it useful for school supplies.
Pattern 12 · Whale pouch
12. Whale Zipper Pencil Case

A blue whale with fins becomes a roomy case for pens and markers. The zipper opening keeps the supplies inside, and the sea-animal shape stands out from a standard rectangular pouch.
Pick the right case for school
For pencils carried in a backpack, choose a zippered pouch and compare its length with the supplies you need. A wolf, panda or skunk holder is better suited to a desk display. For more shapes and styles, see our back-to-school crochet pencil case pattern roundup.
