Four little projects in one crochet small projects pattern pack

This crochet small projects pattern pack gives you four tiny makes in one purchase: a jellyfish keychain, a chick with a pink bow, a puffy heart charm and a butterfly applique. All of them use very little yarn, so they are a good answer to the bag of leftovers that keeps growing in the corner.

It is also the only pack in the shop with four patterns, not three. Small projects suit people who like finishing things, and with four to choose from you can match your yarn to your mood on any given day.

What the crochet small projects pattern pack saves you

On their own, these four patterns add up to $14.96. The pack brings that down to $9.99, so you keep $4.97.

• Jellyfish Keychain: $3.99 on its own, 19 steps, 22 photos, 13 pages
• Chick Keychain: $3.99 on its own, 47 steps, 51 photos, 20 pages
• Puffy Heart Charm: $3.99 on its own, 33 steps, 37 photos, 16 pages
• Butterfly Applique: $2.99 on its own, 19 steps, 21 photos, 12 pages

Altogether, that is 118 steps, 131 photos and 61 pages, in four separate PDF files.

The jellyfish keychain

Thirteen rounds and one colour make the bell, and six long chains make the tentacles. They are worked straight onto the rim, so there is nothing to sew together. About 15 g of DK yarn is enough for the whole thing, and round 13 forces the rim into a deep frill by itself, which is very satisfying to watch.

The chick with a bow and a daisy

This is the most detailed of the four, and it is about 6 to 7 cm tall. The body is one round piece, with tiny wings, feet, a bow and a daisy on a wire stem added at the end. You can hang it on your keys or keep it as a mini plush. Take your time over the little parts, since each one has its own photos.

The puffy heart

Two small round tops are joined in one round, then decreases bring the shape down into a point. It uses only single crochet, increases and decreases, and it is about 6 to 7 cm wide with milk cotton. If you are new to amigurumi, start here, because the PDF treats it as a first project and walks through even the opening ring.

The butterfly applique

Four colours and four rounds build this one from the middle outwards, and scraps are enough for several. Round 3 turns a small heart shape into four wings by changing the height of the stitches. The finished butterfly is about 7 cm across, ready to sew onto a bag, a hat or a headband, or to glue onto a card or a hair clip.

Why this crochet small projects pattern pack is a good deal for scraps

Each of these uses little yarn, but they do not use the same kind of yarn. The jellyfish wants DK, the heart a light milk cotton, the chick a 4-ply or sport cotton in many colours, and the butterfly a 4-ply or sport cotton in four shades. That variety gives you a home for most of the odd balls in your basket.

They also make easy small gifts. A charm or an applique is a short, satisfying job, and you do not have to commit to a large project. Every PDF has a stitch guide in US terms and a page for when something goes wrong, so a mistake on a tiny piece is easy to put right.

What you need for the crochet small projects pattern pack

Each pattern has its own full list. If you are not sure what a leftover ball weighs in, the Craft Yarn Council yarn weight chart is an easy way to compare. Across the pack you will need:

• Hooks of 2.5 mm for the jellyfish, chick and butterfly, and 3 mm for the heart
• Small amounts of DK, milk cotton and 4-ply or sport cotton yarn
• Polyester fibrefill, a yarn needle, scissors and a stitch marker
• Key rings, and 8 mm safety eyes for the jellyfish if you want them
• Thin craft wire and strong craft glue for the chick’s daisy and feet

Who this crochet small projects pattern pack suits

It suits beginners who want short, encouraging projects, and it suits experienced makers who want something light between large pieces. It is also a nice choice if you like giving handmade charms to friends. For another small make on the blog, try our free crochet cherry keychain tutorial.
