I am really pleased with this tiny, stripped-back crochet lion keychain design. And you can make your own in the time it would have taken you to vacuum your home – I’m sure we can agree this is a much more productive way to spend the day.

Here’s what I used to create this pattern. As usual, I’ve overestimated the yarn weights by a fair amount, because nothing frustrates me more than not having enough yarn to finish a project!

2.5mm crochet hook
30g yellow Hobbii cotton silk yarn
30g orange Hobbii cotton silk yarn
Toy safe stuffing
10mm safety eyes
Yarn needle
