Free crochet mushroom keychain pattern: a Mushroom Keychain amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in fingering yarn with a 2 mm hook. A tall red toadstool cap with white dots sits on a cream stem that has pink cheeks and an open-mouth smile, with a brown keyring loop on top. You need about 45 m of yarn: 15 m red, 15 m cream, 5 m white, 5 m dark brown and 5 m pink. Plan on roughly 2 hours. It is a simple, cheerful make for a backpack charm or a keychain, and a nice small gift for anyone who loves forest things. You can spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern.
