Pattern
by adorably kawaii

Please look over the pattern carefully before starting. When you change colors
over a few stitches, you can drop the yarn and leave a short float (making sure
it's not too tight) or crochet over it instead of fastening it off each time.

Materials: Tools:
• Worsted weight yarn in pink, white, • B/2.25mm hook
and orange. (I used Vanna's Choice • Yarn needle
Baby and Red Heart Super Savers)
• Pair of 9mm safety eyes
• Keychain Size:
• Stuffing • Approximately 2.5”(6cm) tall. Results
will vary depending on your tension and
your yarn & hook choice.

Gauge:

It's important to make sure the hook size you're using is the
appropriate size for your yarn and tension. Choose a size that makes
the stitches tight enough so stuffing doesn't show through. Generally,
you should use a hook that is about 2 sizes smaller than recommended
on the yarn label.

Abbreviations:

Ch - Chain Sk - Skip
Sc - Single crochet Sl st - Slip stitch
2 sc - 2 single crochet increase St(s) -–Stitch(es)
Sc2tog - 2 single crochet R# - Round/Row #
decrease Rep - Repeat

to mark the start or end of the round.
