How to Make a Tiny Spider-Man Keychain

Greetings, fellow craft enthusiasts! In this tutorial, I'm going to show you how to create an adorable and easy-to-make spider-man keychain. This project allows you to unleash your creativity by using different sizes and thicknesses of yarn. So, gather your materials and let's get started!

Materials Needed

To make this cute spider-man keychain, you will need the following materials:

1. Red yarn
2. Blue yarn
3. Black yarn or thread
4. White fabric
5. Hook (approximately 3mm thick)
6. Stitch marker
7. Scissors
8. Stuffing
9. Silicone (optional for added durability)

Now that you have everything you need, let's dive into the step-by-step process of creating your very own spider-man keychain.

Step 1: Making the Magic Ring

To begin, take the red yarn and create a magic ring with 8 stitches. Close the ring and join with a slip stitch. Make your first single crochet and mark it with a stitch marker.

Step 2: Increasing the Stitches

Next, continue with an increase in each stitch, resulting in a total of 16 stitches. Close the magic ring and continue with a stitch and an increase, repeating eight times to have 24 stitches.

Step 3: Continuing with Single Crochets

Now, continue with 2 stitches and an increase, repeating eight times to have 32 stitches. From here, work 8 rounds of 32 single crochets.

Step 4: Decreasing the Stitches

After completing the single crochet rounds, proceed with 2 single crochets and a decrease, repeating 8 times to have 24 stitches. Continue with a stitch and a decrease, repeating 8 times to have 16 stitches. Once again, continue with two stitches and a decrease, repeating four times to have 12 stitches. Finish with two rounds of 12 single crochets.

Step 5: Stuffing the Head

With the head completed, it's time to stuff it. Use a small amount of stuffing to give your spider-man keychain some shape and firmness.

Step 6: Weaving the Body

Without cutting the yarn, proceed to weave the body. Make 2 stitches and an increase, repeating 4 times to have 16 single crochets. Work two rounds of 16 single crochets. Then, cut a bit of yarn and close it securely.

Step 7: Changing to Blue Yarn

Switch to the blue yarn and begin with a round of 16 single crochets. Continue with three stitches and an increase, repeating four times to have 20 stitches. Follow this with two rounds of 20 single crochets.

Step 8: Closing the Body

To create the separation between the chest and legs, insert your hook through the first stitch and count 12 stitches. Insert the hook again and close with a slip stitch. Repeat this on the opposite side to ensure a secure closure.

Step 9: Making the Legs

To form the legs, make three rounds of 8 single crochets each. Stuff the legs slightly to give them shape and dimension.

Step 10: Sewing the Arms

Using black yarn, sew the arms to the body. Count 4 stitches upwards from the row where you changed color and sew the arms between stitches 4 and 5.

Step 11: Sewing the Spider Pattern

Take black yarn and sew a spider pattern on the chest. Begin by passing the needle through the center of the chest, making several passes until you create an oval shape. Take the needle out through the middle of this oval and continue making slightly inclined lines on each side.

Step 12: Cutting Out the Mask

Cut out a black and white mask shape from the fabric. The black part should go below and the white part above. You can place two pins in the center of the head as a guide to position the eyes correctly.
