My uncle got me your goblinoid crochet kit for Christmas a while back. It took me a while to start using it, but once I did, I fell in love with crochet. Thank you for all the fun memories (and plushies) that you've sparked. ❤️
My preferred method, now that I’ve started making keychains, is to just sew in the keychain when I’m at the part of the project I want the keychain to be in. Then I’ll continue the project, or just sew in my ends!
That's almost the same way I do it for the Octopus Amigurumi's I crochet. But as I get close to making the edges of its head, I use the "tail" that I have at the top of its head and add the keychain thru the top then use a yarn needle and go thru the jumping and then pull the yarn back thru to the other side and weave in what's left of the tail.
I always start amigurumi by chaining 1, and working 6 sc into it instead of the magic circle. I leave some yarn there, finish my project, and then using that leftover yarn from the beginning, I tie the ring on the piece securely and cut off the excess
@@magentafox1657 as far as I know, it really boils down the personal preference. I stopped using the magic circle because I didn't like starting it, and it sometimes left a small hole on top of my work. Other than that, they're pretty much the same, use whichever you like better
@@magentafox1657Usually, the pro to using a Magic Ring is that you can - theoretically - pull it shut all the way, so there's no hole. When you sc into a chain st, often that leaves a hole, because the sts make room for themselves naturally. However, I'm never one to just leave well enough alone, so if my work has an unintentional hole - crochet or knit, regardless of what I'm making or where it happens - I go through the back or inside of the work or however I need to do it, and loop a small piece of yarn through the hole & tie it off & find a way to hide the ends (I learned that from doing embroidery).
When you finish a project instead of cutting off that last piece of yarn, use that same piece to attach the keychain so u don't have to add a new string
This was actually really helpful! I bought an crochet keychain a long time ago and the yarn connecting the loop snapped, so i haven't been able to use it. Now i can add it back to my backpack!
I like to use needle nose pliers to spread one of the links, pull up some loops of the piece with a needle, and threading the link through them and squeezing it together again.
Where did you get the keychain from? I can’t find a good one anywhere! And this is a very helpful tutorial I couldn’t figure out how to do it when I made a keychain for my friend awhile back!
For those who want it written: Making the Center 1. Magic ring 2. Do 4 half double (correct me if im wrong) loops; pull through all then 1 slip stich to seal 3. Repeat step 2 for 9 times (get 10 total) 4. Seal magic ring 5. Now make another center (repeat step 1-4) and stich the two back to back using single crochets Making the Petals 6. Get color 2, single crochet it into the edgeof the brown center 7. Make 3 slip stiches (3ch) 8. Do 5 half doubles in the 1st row do 5 more half doubles in next row 9. Pull through all; seal with slip stich 10. Chain 3 slip stich; looop it back to the same stich you started it on 11. Chain 3 and stich it in the 2nd row to finish the other side of petal 12. Repeat step 7-11 for the rest of the petals (10 total) 13. Seal it off at the end so it doesn’t unravel
I would be worried about just one strand holding the keychain, so I think I still prefer just opening the jump ring and attaching it though the stitches before closing it again
Oh it was craaaazy tight at first. I broke 4 crochet hooks in the first day 😅. Then I got way loose and over corrected. Getting gauge is probably the hardest thing to learn in crochet because it just take’s patience and practice.
Whem i begun o didn't have a needle i just bought yarn and crochet hooks so what i would have sone is crochet a single chain till its a length i want then i would pull the metal loop apart and put it on the end of that
But with this chain the video is using getting yarn and tie to a piece of the top with a small size crochet hook would do just cut the extra yarn pieces off
I have been wanting to start turning my amigurumi into keychains. I hadn't thought of using one that has smaller rings. I'm going to be posting a design soon myself that will be some type of keychain. I just need to finalize the pattern I'm putting together and the details to make it more fancy. Do you recommend always using cotton for keychains? Does acrylic stretch too much?
Oooo I’ll add them to my shop this week for you! I totally forgot to oops! It’ll be available here but I’ll add it to the email newsletter when I do: www.clubcrochet.com/shop You can find them online hobby shops and Amazon I think. Or even a jewelry store might have them?
“This is our Thread and it’s pretty durable so I’m not worried about it breaking” *hm.. that’s what the Titanic thought before it hit a god damn ice burg*
Conversely......just leave the tail long, use that to sew in the key chain at the same time you're closing off your final stitches, maybe even do a single slip stitch around the chain knot tightly and hide the remaining tail in the body..... No need for extra steps. That sucker is NEVER coming out, especially if it's amigurumi cotton....
New jellyfish pattern out now 🪼🧶 www.clubcrochet.com/jellyfish

The easiest way is when you begin crocheting. ❤

That’s a great alternative method for sure!
Some patterns I've done use this method. Do you know what the pros and cons of each method are?

That’s so clever! Definitely using this when I’m ready to start adding keychains!
thanks so much! I just got 4 Keychains that I wanted to put my amigurumi's on
Where to buy keychains? Amazon?
@@donnathompson6694 you can yes!! I bought a pack with like 50
This is sooo good tysmn
Super clear, effective and helpful. Thanks!
You can also add them before you stuff and close your work

Ugh I love thisssss!!! I need to learn amigurumi. I've been crocheting for three years but it's mainly traditional stuff
Oh you can totallly do it! Just take the leap! It’s so fun and fast!
I’ve never tried knitting so idk why I’m watching this video but that jellyfish is really cute! I love it you did a fantastic job
This is crochet, which is done with a hook, not knitting : )
@@toohottohandle0_0
Crochet is French for hook. In some other languages, like Spanish, they will say knitting with a hook for crochet. 🙂
@@toohottohandle0_0 my bad! I had a little brain fart when i made it and if I edited it i would remove the heart (also srry for replying late)
Thank you!!!! I have been trying to learn how to do this for so long!!!
Adorable jellyfish! Love your way to attach the keychain. Thank you. 🤗 Do you have a tutorial for the jellyfish?
Sure do! www.clubcrochet.com/jellyfish
@@ClubCrochet awesome, thank you so much!🤗 I joined but, found that you have to pay for a membership 🤷🏼♀️
THIS WAS PERFECT THANK YOU!!
Omg thanks! Your a life saver!!
Thank you! This was super helpful! I just tried it and it worked perfectly! ❤
Thank you, great idea.

It’s so cute omg
very cute jellyfish❤❤❤❤
OMG that jellyfish looks so cute! You should name her/him Poppy!
THANK YOU! This is very helpful!
using pliers and opening the jump ring, sliding it through the stitches and sealing it back up sounds faster and easier than this.
This is super helpful, thank you! ❤
Its so cute
This is super cute I love it❤
Nicely done, well explained 😉
That is ready cute 😍 💕 😘 💖 💗 ☺️
I would be worried about just one strand holding the keychain, so I think I still prefer just opening the jump ring and attaching it though the stitches before closing it again
i just bend a coloured clip paper,insert from inside the amigurumi its the easiest and cleaness way for me
That’s a good trick but I’ve found it gets pulled out kinda easy and I lost a few keychains using that method. But it does work still!
Thank you SO much!
Nossa! Bem melhor assim! Gratidão 🙏🏻❤
Good tidy job❤
Thank You
Omg thank you so much!!
Beautiful ❤❤❤
I just kinda jab mine in but this way is good too ❤
I like this idea 💡 thanks 😊
Not sure why I just saw this, but always be careful bc with any method, if the jump ring opens, you just lost your ami that was attached
Thank you!
The octopus keychain sooo cute ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Cute!
The jellyfish is so cute! Was it a daisy stitch?
Thank you.
Smart, I have a lot of chains like that from my parrots toys they chew apart are basically keychains maybe I’ll reuse them
Thank you sm!!
How do you get your pattern so clear?? Is it the yarn I’m using? It’s recycled cotton.
I have a question… when you started crocheting was it kinda holey and messed up in places or was it good off the bat?
Oh it was craaaazy tight at first. I broke 4 crochet hooks in the first day 😅. Then I got way loose and over corrected. Getting gauge is probably the hardest thing to learn in crochet because it just take’s patience and practice.
@@ClubCrochet thank you! I won’t give up and I’ll keep trying!
Thank you that was very useful
I just open the keychain thing that is on the bottom and close it on one of the stitches
THANK U SO MUCH, this helped me add my first keychain to my baby whale 🐋 amigurami.❤
Thank you!!
So cute fab tip x
Thanks.
You’re welcome!

I start the magic ring in the key chain, so after you don't have to see it
Tutorial please.Thank you
Omg it worked ty
This is so cool and if anyone realised thats a loop
Awesome 😊

Out of curiosity, why don't you just open the jump ring and poke it through and then close it back up again?
Thanks for this tip, I literally almost break my fingernails for inserting that 😼
Thank you! I crocheted a mini sea turtle and it fell out of the keychain recently
I know other way n I think is easier but this looks cuteee
Superb
What about different types of the keychains?
Hmm. Im not sure tbh. I’d need to see some other keychain examples but I can imagine this would work for other options too.
@@ClubCrochet thank you ✨
Where do you buy the empty keychains?
Where to buy the keychains? What r they called ?😊
Oooo I’ll add them to my shop this week for you! I totally forgot to oops! It’ll be available here but I’ll add it to the email newsletter when I do: www.clubcrochet.com/shop

I put the chain through the stitch, widely, it stays on the longest
Thxs
Where do you get the keychains?
That looks nice but my yarn isn't as good as yours so it might not work
why didn't the algorithm show me this earlier 😭😭😭
we want the pattern pls
❤❤❤
Jellyfish 👍
I could make so many
Cuuuuute
Does anyone know if earrings are the same way
That jellyfish is cutie-patootie!
POV: when it took u hours to add a ring and u find this video while scrolling on ur phone right after doing it 💀☠️
my keychain doesnt fit on my needle
Where do you buy your key chains
I get the wholesale, I can add them to the shop for you!
...why can't you just put the jump ring through a stitch?
You can it’s just can be pretty tough to do after finishing your crochet. Also could bend your keychain in a way that could leave it unsecured.

We’ll maybe if the titanic wasn’t made of thread it wouldn’t have broken!! 🙄
Conversely......just leave the tail long, use that to sew in the key chain at the same time you're closing off your final stitches, maybe even do a single slip stitch around the chain knot tightly and hide the remaining tail in the body..... No need for extra steps. That sucker is NEVER coming out, especially if it's amigurumi cotton....
I wish I could pay for it
I’ll add it to the shop this week for you. Thank you!
