, a 2.5 mm crochet hook (this makes the little beetle nice and sturdy), sewing needle, key ring

The little beetle can be used as a token pouch on your key ring, an appliqué for bags/trousers, a gift tag, a flower hanger, etc. Or you can crochet the body twice and decorate both sides if it is not meant to be used as a token pouch.
