Crochet Apple Slice Keychain

August 15, 2013

The kids are going back-to-school and the Fall season is right around the corner. This is the perfect time to whip up some apple themed craft projects or recipes! I am thrilled today to be teaming up with some of #myfavoritebloggers to bring you some fun and simple apple project ideas and yummy treats.

I’d love to introduce them to you:

Just for fun we decided to team up once a month and create projects based on a common theme.  This month’s theme is APPLES. After you are done looking at my crochet apple keychains, head over and check out some of these other great APPLE projects.  The links are all listed at the bottom of this post.

I am going to show you how to make these super easy Crochet Apple Slice Keychains! Give them as a gift to a teacher, friend or use them for yourself πŸ™‚ They could also be used as a backpack zipper pull for the kids!

Let’s start with the pattern.


Materials: 
– Worsted weight yarn in white or cream and red or green. I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Scarlet (red) and Fern (green)
– Size H or G crochet hook (H for slightly larger apples)
– Tapestry needle
– Ribbon
– Key rings
– Brown felt (and green felt if you want to make a leaf)

Abbreviations:
Magic Ring Tutorial
SC = Single Crochet

Apple Slice Pattern:
Start with white or cream yarn…Magic ring, ch 1 in ring, 12 SC in ring, join, ch 1
Round 2: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next, repeat around, join, ch 1 (18 SC)
Round 3: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next 2 stitches, repeat around, join, ch 1 (24 SC)
Round 4: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next 3 stitches, repeat around, join, (30 SC)
Change to red or green yarn…
Round 5: ch 1, 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next 4 stitches, repeat around, join, (36 SC)

Fasten off leaving long tail

You should now have a piece that looks like this:
Now fold it in half.
Take your tapestry needle and weave the tail in and out of the last single crochets so your apple slice is now stitched together. Weave in loose end.
Cut out small seeds from brown felt and hot glue them on!
Lastly, take a piece of ribbon and pass it through and end of the apple slice. At this point you can also add a little felt leaf if you want. You will need to cut a slit in the leaf for the ribbon to go through. Hot glue the ends of the ribbon together around your key ring (but make sure the hot glue doesn’t actually touch the key ring).
Enjoy your new apple accessory!

    You are seriously amazing. I was wondering how you did the half circle, never thought it was a full circle folded in half! Genius lady.

    All I see is pink centers, dark green boarder & black seeds. My daughter is a freak for anything Watermelon. These are perfect. They are cute as apples, too. But Watermelon will be the biggest hit in my family. Thanks for the inspiration.
