The fox amigurumi toy was designed for Christmas and looks quite useful due to its size. This toy can be used both as a keychain and as a Christmas ornament. It is a toy that can be used for decorative purposes, especially when decorating the Christmas tree. You need to use a 2.2mm crochet hook when making the crochet fox.
Christmas Fox Dolly for Beginners Crochet Pattern
The approximate size of the toy is 8.5cm. I think this is a very reasonable number for a keychain. If you are going to use the fox toy as a keychain, you may need to sew the green fox’s green scarf to the neck of the toy.

This pattern can even be used as a toy, rattle (without the scarf) or Christmas tree pendant.
The toy is 8.5cm wide, on average, if made with traditional amigurumi yarn and a 2.2mm crochet hook.
