Uncle Jup, Auntie Gee Crochet is the creator behind the original YouTube tutorial on which this written pattern is based. This Crochet Rabbit Keychain is a fun project for anyone who enjoys making small crochet accessories. Its tiny size makes it easy to carry, while the sweet rabbit shape gives it a playful and charming look.
Cute Crochet Rabbit Keychain Free Pattern For Bag Charm
The project is made with basic crochet materials such as soft yarn, a suitable crochet hook, stuffing, a yarn needle, scissors, safety eyes, and a keychain ring. The finished size may vary depending on the yarn and hook used, but it is designed as a small and lightweight piece that works well as a keychain.
To make the rabbit, you crochet the small body parts separately, following the tutorial for the correct stitches, increases, and decreases. The pieces are then lightly stuffed and sewn together carefully to form the rabbit. Details such as the eyes and other small features are added at the end, followed by attaching the keychain ring securely.
This project is suitable for beginners who already know basic crochet stitches and simple amigurumi techniques. With its quick construction and adorable results, this rabbit keychain is a lovely project for personal use or handmade gifts.
If you share the original tutorial or its details, I can also make the size and construction steps more precise.
Bunny Keychain Amigurumi Crochet Pattern
Pattern Basic Points
-
Continuous Spiral Construction: Every component is worked in seamless continuous rounds without joining at the end of each round unless explicitly noted. Utilize stitch markers to track the initial stitch of each round to avoid miscounts.
-
Component-Based Assembly: The design relies on distinct piece construction, requiring separate completion of the head, body, hat, and two ears prior to final assembly.
-
Tension Consistency: Amigurumi requires tighter gauge control than standard garments to prevent stuffing material from emerging through stitch gaps.
Special Notes
-
Count your stitches at the end of every round to ensure the overall shaping aligns correctly with the target dimensions.
-
Secure eye placement and facial feature embroidery firmly prior to closing off the head and stuffing completely.
-
Leave extended yarn tails on every finished accessory piece (ears, hat, and body) to ease hand-sewing during the assembly phase.
Skill Level
-
Beginner to Intermediate: Suitable for crocheters familiar with working in the round, executing fundamental increases and decreases, following amigurumi counting charts, and assembling multi-piece crochet projects.
Materials

Yarn:
-
Main Body Color: White, cream, or light pastel yarn for the head, body, and ears.

Special Stitches

Assembly & Finished Size
-
Facial Feature Verification: Ensure the 4 mm bead eyes are firmly attached between Round 4 and Round 5 of the head, and verify that the embroidered nose and mouth details are securely stitched.
-
Ear Attachment: Thread the yarn tail of one ear onto a tapestry needle. Flatten the base of the ear and sew it securely onto the top portion of the head or directly onto the hat, depending on whether you want the ears coming through or under the hat. Repeat for the second ear, ensuring equal spacing on both sides of the head center.
-
Hat Attachment: Place the hat over the top portion of the head. Align it symmetrically above the eyes and sew around the rim using the long yarn tail, anchoring it to the head stitches.
-
Head to Body Join: Align the open neck portion of the body (Round 10, featuring 12 stitches) with the bottom center of the head. Using the body's long yarn tail, stitch through both loops of the body neck and into the head's corresponding stitch locations, sewing continuously around the 12 stitches. Pull tightly every few stitches for a firm neck connection that prevents head flopping. Knot and hide yarn ends inside the body cavity.

- Keychain Hardware: Loop a key ring or bag clip through the central magic ring top of the hat or head using jump rings or a small reinforced yarn loop.
