Free crochet pigeon pattern: a Pigeon Keychain amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in fingering yarn with a 2 mm hook. It is a tiny round grey pigeon with a green and purple neck band, striped wings, orange eyes and a loop on top for a key ring. You need about 70 m of yarn: 20 m grey, 10 m slate grey, 5 m dark grey, 5 m green, 5 m purple, 5 m black, 5 m pink, 5 m rose, 5 m charcoal and 5 m white. Plan on roughly 2 hours. Clip it to keys or a bag as a small gift for city-bird fans; you can spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern.
