'Member 2016? 'Member Berry keychain *free crochet pattern

'Member 2016?
Yeah I 'member!
The last pattern I am posting this year is for your own 'Member Berry keychain!
My kids have been saying "yeah, I 'member!" Ever since the 'Member Berries arrived on Southpark, so I figured we could 'member 2016 together!

This is a quick and easy pattern that even a beginner could make :-)

Materials

Ww yarn in medium purple (I used Red Heart Super Saver)

Small amt of purple and black embroidery floss for features

6mm safety eyes

Fiberfill

Keyring or lanyard hook/zipper pull

F hook

Scissors

Needle (to weave in ends and create features


Abbreviations

Ch: chain

Mr: magic ring

Sl st: slip stitch

Sc: single crochet

Sc2tog: single crochet 2 sts together; decrease

F.o. : finish off


Notes

All terms American.   If pattern reads "sc, sc2tog, 2sc" it would be read as, " single crochet, single crochet 2 stitches together, 2 single crochet in the next stitch", directions are to be repeated to end of row/round unless otherwise noted.  As with any pattern, be sure to read through once before beginning, and don't forget to mark your rounds! (I use a bit of contrasting yarn) This is an original design by me, Anna Wilson 2016.



You may do whatever you like with your completed Member Berry keyring, you can 'member pop culture trivia, help your friends 'member,  or even give them as a gift!  I only ask that you please not claim this pattern as your own, I worked hard to design my Member Berry Keychain :)
