Crochet Heart Keychain & Bag Charm Pattern Free
For Valentine’s day make a small heart keychain that is cute and useful. It is a tiny heart shape made with yarn and a crochet hook, then turned into a keychain you can hang on keys, bags, or backpacks. The heart keychain is simple and lovely, so it makes a nice gift or a fun little accessory for yourself.
You use basic crochet stitches to build the heart and shape it as you go. After the heart is finished, you attach a small loop or keyring so it can hang on your keys or bag. For your assistance, there is a video guide by Bi do Handmade that shows each part slowly, so it is easy to see how the heart becomes a keychain.
Bi do Handmade is an had been an expert in crocheting and designing crochet amigurumi, bag charms, and pouches. Also visit her youtube channel for more exiting projects.
