Keychain "Heart"

The keychain is an integral decoration for flash drives, phones, and keys. It is used not only for beauty, but also so that one can distinguish one’s own things from other people’s items, since products from the same manufacturer may not differ in any way from each other. Most girls cannot find items such as keys in their purses. To do this, various beautiful keychains come to their aid. Currently, stores offer a huge selection of keychains, but none of them can compare with those made with your own hands. There are a lot of different holidays in the year and every person thinks about gifts for their family and friends. I suggest making a keychain from yarn in the shape of a heart.

To make a keychain you will need:

• Blue yarn with Rulex,
  
• Knitting needles No. 4,
  
• Needle,
  
• Pin,
  
• Blue sewing thread,
  
• purple satin ribbon,
  
• Glue gun,
  
• Sintepon.

We start making the keychain directly from the main part, that is, you need to knit two hearts. Since the keychain itself is a small product, the hearts will be small. And because of their size, they knit very quickly; both hearts will be ready in just 15 minutes.So, on knitting needles No. 4 we cast on three stitches and purl one row. On subsequent rows you need to do one yarn over at the beginning of the row. This is necessary so that the heart expands in both directions. We expand the product until 18 loops appear on the knitting needles, that is, the number must be even so that the number of loops can be divided into 2 parts.



We divide our 18 loops into two parts, that is, 9 loops each. We leave 9 loops on the knitting needle, and put the others on a pin. We knit 9 loops that remained on the knitting needle. We start knitting by knitting two loops together at the beginning of the row. When you reach the end of the row, we also knit 2 loops together there. This is how you need to knit the rows so that there are 3 loops left on the knitting needle. We close off these remaining loops, as in normal knitting.




Using a similar pattern, we knit the second heart.



If you look closely, one side of the heart will be fluffier than the other. Therefore, in order for the finished keychain to be fluffy, you need to do this: put the hearts on top of each other so that the fluffy sides are adjacent to each other. We thread the sewing thread into the needle in the same color as the yarn so that it is not visible. Sew the heart together, starting from the bottom of one side and moving clockwise to the other side. At the end of sewing, leave a small hole for filling. Since the heart is small, it is best to leave exactly the part shown in the photo for filling, because this will make it easier to sew up the filled heart and it will not lose its shape. So, we turn the sewn halves inside out and fill them with padding polyester and sew them up with thread.




Connect the glue gun to electricity and heat it up. At this time, cut a satin ribbon 20-25 cm long.The width of the tape is 7 mm. Using glue, glue the ribbon to the heart. Leave the keychain on the table for the glue to dry for 2-3 minutes.



The “Heart” keychain is ready! You can safely give it to loved ones, relatives or just good acquaintances to whom you would like to present something nice.
