Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Making Rectangular Strips
- Objective: Create three rectangular strips (two small, one longer) to form the base of the keychain.
- Start by creating a slip knot and crocheting chains to the desired length (shorter for two strips, longer for the third).

- Slip stitch to secure the stitches.
- Repeat to form two equal sections of the bow.
- Pull the yarn to fasten the center of the magic circle and make adjustments.
- Wrap extra yarn around the center to give the bow a neat, finished look.
- Secure the yarn at the back of the bow.
3. Rolling the Rectangular Strips
- Objective: Roll the strips into circular shapes and assemble them for the keychain base.
- Apply hot glue along one edge of each strip.
- Roll the strip tightly to form a circular shape, ensuring the glue holds it together securely.
- Repeat this process for all three strips.
4. Assembling the Keychain
- Objective: Combine all the keychain components into a finished piece.
- Attach the rolled circles together using hot glue, with the larger circle in the middle and the smaller two pieces on either side.
