Aperol Spritz Crochet Keychain

Materials:

• 2mm crochet hooks,
• Orange, light blue and white sports-weight yarn
• Black and white thread to embroider the face,
• Sewing needle,
• Stuffing material hypoallergenic polyester,
• Scissors

Finished Size

The finished amigurumi Aperol Spritz crochet keychain pattern measures approximately 2.3″ (6 cm) tall. However, the final size may vary depending on your stitch tension and the materials used.

Gauge

Gauge is not crucial for this pattern, so feel free to use a hook size that matches your chosen yarn. I always recommend using a slightly smaller hook to keep the stitches tight and prevent the stuffing from showing through. If needed, adjust your hook size for a neater finish.

However, if you’d like to know the gauge for my chosen yarn and materials, here it is:
With sport-weight yarn and a 2mm crochet hook, the gauge for 5 rounds (increasing to 30 stitches) measures approximately 1.6″ (4.5 cm).

Terms and abbreviations (US terms):

Slip stitch (sl): insert the hook into the stitch and pull up a loop, now, pull it through the loop on your needle.

Single crochet (sc): insert the hook into the stitch, and pull up a loop yarn over the needle, you will have two loops on the hook, yarn over the needle, and pull it through the two loops.

Half double crochet (hdc): yarn over, insert the hook into the stitch, and pull up a loop yarn over the needle, you will have three loops on the hook, yarn over the needle, and pull it through all loops.

Increase (inc): make two single crochet inside the same stitch.

Decrease (dec): Insert the hook into the front loop only of the next two stitches, yarn under, and pull through, you will have two loops on the hook. Yarn under and pull through both loops on the hook.
