Ch 13

1. Beginning 2nd ch from hook, sc 11, inc in last stitch, sc 11 in the back loops 

*After round 2, measure the bun against the dog to see if it's long enough. You may want to add or take away from the starting chain to fit your dog better.*

2-20. Sc around - 22

*How far you want your bun to wrap around the dog is up to you - you can add it subtract rounds as desired.*

Finish off and sew shut

Assemble the dog then add the legs.

Legs: Make 4

Below is the original pattern. I ended up just making a bobble directly on the body for each leg because it was such a small piece to work with

3-4. Sc around - 6

Finish off)

When the dog is completely assembled, embroider yellow and red thread for ketchup and mustard.

Assembly Part 1:

After the cover, outer base, and inner base are finished, cut a small piece of leather to fit inside the cover and a small piece to fit between the outer and inner layers of the piano. (It helps to use the bottom of the piano base as a guide while cutting the leather.)

This is the leather piece I cut out for the cover

Insert the leather into the cover and whipstitch the cover shut.

Insert the leather into the bottom of the outer base, place the inner base on top of it, and begin to sew the pieces together with the tail of the outer base. As you sew it together, insert a pipecleaner around the sides of the piano. (This will help the sides stay in the correct shape.)

Keyboard Base: In Black
After adding the leather insert and sewing the inside to the outer part of the piano, you can make the piano keyboard.

Rnd 1: Flip the piano upside down and, now working from the right corner of row 31, 19 sc across. (You kind of have to crochet the stitches in the post of the rows.)

Rnd 2-5: ch 1, turn, sc across (19)
Finish off, but leave a tail. Use the tail to sew the edges of the keyboard up to the front of the piano to create sides.

Keys:
Using white thread, Ch 4
Rnd 1: Skip 1st sc, sc in next 3 st
Rnd 2-15: ch 1, turn, 3 sc (3)
Finish off
The white keys will be held on by sewing the black keys. Arrange the keys on top of the black base you crocheted. Then, in black, sew the black keys. I was only able to fit about 2 1/2 octaves on my piano...

Legs: (make 3)

Rnd1. 4 sc in magic circle

Rnd 2. Inc around (8)
Rnd 3-9. Sc around (8)
Finish off and sew on


Stick for Cover:
1. 4 sc in magic circle
2. Inc around (8)
3-11. Sc around (8)
Add pipe cleaner and sew closed.

Assembly Part 2:

Sew the legs onto the bottom of the piano base (2 in front and 1 in the back)

Sew the stick onto the front of the base

Sew the cover along the side of the base

Then sew the top of the stick onto the cover.

Add the keychain and finish off.

Miniamigurumi or Microamigurumi Sparrow Bird Keychain Crochet Pattern

Made with embroidery floss - the size of a nickel

Made with crochet thread

Size comparison - crochet thread vs embroidery floss

Supplies needed:                            Crochet Key:

Dark brown thread                          DB = Dark Brown 

Black thread                                    B = Black

Grey thread                                     BLO = back loop only

Keychain ring                                  FLO = front loop only

Every round needs to be joined for this pattern. So at the beginning of every round, sl st in the 1st st, pull tight, ch 1, pull tight, then make the 1st stitch of the round in the same stitch as the sl st, ch1 was made in. This will keep the bird from being twisted.

If you want to make the larger sparrow, use size 10 crochet thread

If you want to make the smaller sparrow, use 1 strand of embroidery floss
