Cute Dog Amigurumi Keychain

Uses: Having this Dog Amigurumi Keychain as your constant companion adds a fun and personal touch to your belongings, be it hanging from your handbag, backpack, or keys. Make the keychain bulky and huggable or tiny and delightful, depending on the type of yarn you use.

Materials:

Sport yarn
2.5mm crochet hook

Making: The body begins with a magic ring, a common starting point for amigurumi, creating a tight and secure center. You'll work in the round using sport weight or bulky chenille yarn, employing simple crochet stitches. Through a series of increases and sc (single crochet) stitches, the body takes shape. After several rounds, alongside strategic decreases, the amigurumi begins to form the cute rounded shape characteristic of these soft sculptures. Before you close up the body, fill it with synthetic poly stuffing to give it a cuddly texture. The body closure and backstitching ensure the stuffing remains securely inside. With black and brown yarn, you add the adorable features—nose and eyes—that give your dog amigurumi its unique face. The embroidery is done directly onto the yarn body, using the crochet stitches as your guide to place the features symmetrically.
