Crochet Heart Keychain

Crochet heart keychains are not just adorable accessories; they are also handmade tokens of love and care that can brighten up anyone's day. Creating these little charms is a delightful way to showcase your crafting skills and spread some joy to those around you. Whether you choose vibrant colors or soft pastels, each keychain is unique and full of personality. The intricate stitches and attention to detail make these hearts special gifts that can be cherished for a long time. So, why not grab your crochet hook, some yarn, and start crafting some love-filled keychains to share with your friends and family? They are sure to appreciate the thought and effort put into each handmade creation.

Supplies:

• You don’t need much. I used “FINGERING” weight yarn. DK can also be used. Good brands that I recommend are: Catona, Catania, Rainbow by Hobbi, 
• You’ll also need this: a keychain ring, scissors, darning needle and stuffing.
• Crochet hook: 2mm (or just whatever you like to use for the yarn you chose )

Abbreviations:

• Ch: chain
• Slst: slip stitch
• Sc: single crochet
• Inc: increase
• Dec: decrease

Extra info:

• “Repeat” means: repeat everything between the asterisks *…* to the end of that row
• Those numbers at the end of the rows in parentheses (.) mean: you should have that number of stitches when you are done with that row

Pattern:

Row 1: 6sc in a magic ring

Row 2: inc 6x (12)

Row 3: *1sc, inc* repeat (18)

Row 4-5: 18sc

Cut the yarn long to sew later

Make another 2nd such crocheted part but this time do NOT cut the yarn after row 5

Do the following to connect the 2 crocheted parts:

Row 6: 18sc in part 2, then 18sc in part 1 (36)

Row 7-9: 36sc

Row 10: 6sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 14sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 6sc (32)

Row 11: 5sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 12sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 5sc (28)

Row 12: 4sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 10sc, dec, 1sc, dec, 4sc (24)

Row 13: 24sc

Row 14: *1sc, dec, 1sc* repeat (18)

Row 15: *1sc, dec* repeat (12)

Now fill up the heart

Row 16: dec 6x (6)

Cut the yarn but leave a long tail

Insert that yarn tail into the center of row 16 and through the heart until it comes out at the top

Now you can use that yarn to attach a keychain ring
