Okay, this is the most fun thing ever! I never knew how to get keyrings onto crocheted items. I’ve tried sliding them on or opening a link and slipping that in, but it always looked messy. This is a much better solution. Thank you for sharing!

This is too cute. I sat right down & made one very quick. Didn’t have the correct “Mexican” colors so I did a sample in pink, grey, black & a variegated of these colors. Thanks for such a cute idea. Gobna hang mine on my car mirror.

I liked the idea but thought I would change it up a bit. Wondered what you would think.
Plan to leave the threads short inside and opening at the top a little bigger. Get a clear miniature 10 light string from store and fit hat over each light. Fiesta light up!! Just a thought

There is an icon witch states print. I clicked on it, and it would not print.

These are wonderful games. It seems to me that children’s entertainment should be interactive and informative. I recently read an article about the possibilities of finding creative ideas for essays on the Internet. This site https://eduzaurus.com/free-essay-samples/entertainment/ will help you find free texts that your child can read. This is a good idea.

These are so cute! I am going to make them for my little brother. He wants them as hats for his little stuffed animals.

I work with predominately Latino people. Last year I made 30 of these for Cinco de Mayo. They LOVED them! This year I am making them a slice of lime keychain from your pattern.
