As you all know, it is quite difficult to make plush amigurumi toys in such small sizes, and the fact that the material list used is not clearly stated can make the toy a little difficult to make. Today, I will introduce you to a bunny pattern designed by ellescraftst that you can use as a keychain. We can see that the crocheted toy is holding a heart in its lap. You will also learn how to make such a tiny heart while making this toy.
Keychain the Chubby Bunny Crochet Pattern
Two different colors of yarn are used in making the crochet bunny. Although the yarn has a plush texture, you will need to use a thin yarn. Now, if you are ready, let’s start.
