Free crochet cherry keychain pattern: a Cherry Twins Keychain amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in fingering yarn with a 2.0 mm hook. Two round red cherries on green stems with one leaf share a tan key ring loop; one twin smiles and the other frowns with angry brows. You need about 40 m of yarn: 20 m red, 5 m green, 5 m pink, 5 m tan and 5 m light green. Plan on roughly 1 hour. It works as a keychain, a bag charm or a tiny gift for a friend who has a mood for every day. Turn the 3D model around and follow the pattern round by round.
