Make your own super cute caterpillar pencil case with pin loom woven shapes. This zipper pouch uses only 2 pin looms: 4″ square and 2″x4″ rectangle! If you also have a 1″ square, you can add little finger grips and zipper pull (pictured but optional).
This is a beginner friendly project as each shape is woven in plain weave. The Caterpillar Pattern includes step by step written instructions and lots of photos. Here’s what’s in the tutorial:

More about the Caterpillar Pencil Case
We call this Caterpillar Pouch a pencil case, but it’s also a fun size for storing other craft and hobby supplies like crochet hooks. The Caterpillar Pencil Case is pretty quick to stitch. It takes a little longer if you want to line the bag…which we totally recommend as woven squares aren’t the most secure for sharp objects like pencils.
