Free Crochet Ice Cream Cone Keychain Pattern

Ice cream is undoubtedly the best crochet summer theme. In this post, I will share a free written pattern to crochet a pair of ice cream cone keychains with rainbow sprinkle embroidery and an option to choose blueberry and strawberry flavours. It is crocheted into two main parts that will be joined later: the cone (the body) and the scoop.

You can also make it a tiered scoop. There is also an edging that covers the top of the cone. This makes it look life-like and authentic. I will share both the UK and US patterns here.
