Bird, Rocket & Flower Keychains
This pattern is for a small bird, rocket and flower keychain. The pattern also includes printable gift tag templates making these items perfect teacher thank you presents!
The pattern includes lots of photos to help you every step of the way. It is written in English, using American crochet terms.
You will need:
Yarn of your choice. Yarn weight doesn’t really matter - the size of your keychains will simply turn out bigger or smaller! I used Patons Smoothie DK weight yarn with a 3.5mm hook and my keychains are the following sizes:
Bird: 6cm long
Rocket: 9cm long
Flower: 7cm long
You will need the following colours:
Bird:
Light green (approx. 11.5m),
Dark Green (approx. 4.5m).
Rocket:
White (approx. 9m),
Blue (approx. 5m),
Red (approx. 4.5m),
Yellow (approx. 3.5m),
Orange (approx. 3.5m).
Flower:
Yellow (approx. 1m),
Pink (approx. 3m),
Light green (approx. 1.5m),
Brown (approx. 1.5m),
Blue (approx. 6m).
Please note = The amount of yarn used will vary according to yarn weight, hook size and stitch tension so these measurements are only a rough guide.
You will also need:
A suitable size hook for the yarn you have chosen - I used a 3.5mm hook.
A small amount of toy stuffing.
Yellow & pale pink finer yarn or embroidery thread for adding the bird’s facial details & feet.
A pair of 6mm safety eyes for the bird (or these can be embroidered if preferred).
3 Keychains - I use lobster clasps but you can attach any style of keychain.
Other tools you will need are some scissors, a needle and a stitch marker.
If you are using the template labels, you will also need some thick paper or thin card and a hole punch.
