Introduction

In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a pretty key chain or back charm using crochet techniques. This project is perfect for beginners as it is easy to make and requires minimal materials. By following these simple steps, you can create a unique and personalized accessory for yourself or as a gift for someone special.

Materials Needed

Before we get started, let's gather all the materials we will need for this project:

• 2.5 centimeter button
• 100% acrylic yarn (size one super fine category)
• One millimeter crochet hook
• Key ring
• Beads
• Pearl
• Glue gun

Step 1: Making the Base

To begin, insert the crochet hook through the front of the button and create a loop using the green color yarn. Make five single crochets in the first hole of the button, and repeat this process for the other two holes. Join the first single crochet with a slip stitch and finish the round by chaining one and cutting off the yarn.

Step 2: Adding Puffs of Yarn

For the next round, join the pink yarn to any one of the single crochets. Create puffs of yarn by pulling five loops through each stitch and then pulling through all the loops. Chain one after each puff. Repeat this process for all the stitches in the round. Finish the round by making a slip stitch, chaining one, and cutting off the yarn.

Step 3: Adding Beads and Pearl

Using the long yarn tail as a thread, thread the needle and add beads of your choice. Pass the thread through the key ring and the beads, making sure to secure them in place. Once everything is in place, secure the end of the thread by passing it through some stitches and making a knot. Cut off any excess thread.

Step 4: Securing the Key Ring

To ensure the key ring is securely attached, apply some glue to the center of the button and place the pearl bead on top. Repeat this process for the other side of the button. Once the glue has dried, pass the thread through some stitches to hide the yarn tail. Cut off any excess thread.

Step 5: Final Touches

In this final step, we will fix the beads in place. Apply some glue to the center of the button and place the pearl bead on top. Repeat this process for the other side of the button. Allow the glue to dry completely.

Conclusion

Congratulations! Your pretty key chain or back charm is now ready. This simple and fun crochet project can be easily customized to match your style. Enjoy your new accessory or gift it to someone special.
