A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

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.

How to crochet the Cherry Twins Keychain

Beginner-friendly · 8 cm tall · about 2 h · fingering yarn · 2 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 10 pieces in rounds: Cherry ×2, Stem ×2, Leaf, Cheek ×4, Key ring loop (36 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 8 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

  13. Of these: base — 1; on the stem — 1. Size before assembly: about 3.8 cm at the widest, 3.5 cm long; 18 rounds.
  14. → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  15. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  3. Of these: on the cherry — 1; on the stem — 1. Size before assembly: about 0.4 cm at the widest, 3.4 cm long; 13 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  2. Flat motif — leaf (pointed leaf, worked in rounds, one layer of fabric), about 2.8 × 1.1 cm; 1 row.
  3. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

  3. A flat circle about 1 cm across; 2 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  3. Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest (lies flat); 2 rounds. Each piece is two circles (front and back): make 2 circles — 1 as below and 1 plain in tan (same rounds, no colour changes).
  4. Fasten off. Hold a front and a plain circle wrong sides together and sc around through both layers: 14 sc. Do not stuff. Leave a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing.

Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.
