Discover the cutest bee crochet keychain! Crochet the one for yourself with this very easy to follow free crochet pattern! Such sweet keychain adds a handmade touch to your keys. You can sell it or give as a gift to someone special.

SUPPLIES

cotton yarn (e.g. Schachenmayr Catania 125m/50g) in three colors: yellow, brown and lavender, a bit of black for the eyebrows, crochet hook 3 mm, Polyester fiberfill stuffing, scissors, little beads, 2 black beads or safety eyes, yarn needle.

SKILL LEVEL

Easy

SIZE

The ready amigurumi is approx. 12 cm, can be made bigger or smaller depending on the yarn and hook you use.

SKILLS YOU NEED

chain, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, slip stitch, increase, decrease

ABBREVIATIONS

Ch =chain

St = stitch

Sc =single crochet

Sl st = slip stitch

dec = decrease stitch (two single crochets together)

inc = increase stitch (two single crochets into one stitch)

Dc = double crochet

Rnd = Round

TIPPS

  • Do not join rounds, work in a continuous spiral.
  • Use a stitch marker or a piece of yarn to mark the end or the beginning of a round
  • All stitches are worked into both loops, unless stated otherwise in the pattern.
  • Amigurumi can be made in any desired colours.

Seamsless way of changing color when working in the round

Pick up the new color at the end of the round: inset your hook into the stitch, yarn over the new color and pull through the stitch and the loop on your hook to complete the stitch.

SHIFT STITCH

Sometimes during a work of the spiral amigurumi, you need to keep the work symmetrically. As work tends to twist to the right you need to adjust position of the marker periodically (beginning of the round).

Shift stitch is an extra stitch you work at the end of a round to make your work look symmetrical. If you notice that marker moves right, you need to work one extra stitch in the end of the round and move marker for one stitch (now 2nd st of the round becomes 1st). this is shift stitch.

The shift stitch is not included in the round description. To check if it’s time to work shift stitch fold your work in half and check if marker still goes straight or use a yarn that marks a straight line.

You may think this is a increase, but it isn’t. This way you don’t increase or decrease the amount of stitches. The stitches count remains the same.
