Step 1: Creating the Base Chain To start making the letter R from crochet alphabet, we need to create the base chain. For this small-sized keychain, we will make 14 chains. Make a slip knot and lift 14 chains. In the second stitch, make a single crochet. Continue making single crochets in each stitch until you reach the end, resulting in a total of 13 single crochets.

Step 2: Working the First Round For the second round, make a chain and turn your work. Make single crochets in each stitch until you reach the other end. In the last stitch, make an increase by working two single crochets in the same stitch. This will create the curve of the letter R.

Step 3: Continuing with Single Crochets In the following rounds, continue working single crochets in each stitch. This will help shape the letter R. Keep working single crochets until you have the desired height for your letter.

Step 4: Adding Increases and Decreases To create sharper angles in the letter R, add increases and decreases. An increase is made by working two single crochets in the same stitch. A decrease is made by stitching two stitches together. Use these techniques to shape the curves and angles of the letter.

Step 5: Shaping the Curves Pay attention to the curves of the letter R and adjust your stitches accordingly. Use single crochets, increases, and decreases to shape the curves and create a smooth and recognizable letter.

Step 6: Adding a Clasp To turn your crocheted letter R into a keychain, add a clasp. Position the clasp in the desired location and secure it by making stitches around it.

Step 7: Adding a Keychain Loop To make the keychain functional, add a loop at the top of the letter R. Make a chain of 7 to 10 stitches and attach it securely to the top of the letter.

Step 8: Joining the Two Pieces If you prefer a thicker and more defined letter R, you can create two identical pieces and join them together. Sew the two pieces together using slip stitches.

Step 9: Stuffing and Finishing Touches If desired, stuff the letter R with a little bit of cotton to give it a chubby appearance. Fill it gradually and sew up any openings. Make sure to hide any loose ends or extra strands.

Conclusion Congratulations! You have successfully created a crochet letter R keychain. This personalized and unique accessory can be a great gift or a way to showcase your crochet skills. Experiment with different colors and sizes to create a variety of letter keychains.
