Adorable Witch Amigurumi Keychain. Materials I Used
I kept it simple and used materials I already had in my stash. Here’s what I grabbed:
- Worsted weight yarn in:
- Black (hat + boots)
- Purple (dress)
- Beige or peach (skin)
- Yellow (buckle accent)
- A pop of pink or orange for optional details
- 2.5 mm crochet hook – tight stitches are key for amigurumi!
- 6mm safety eyes
- Fiberfill stuffing
- Embroidery thread for the mouth
- Keyring and small jump ring to attach it
- Tapestry needle, scissors, and stitch marker
One of the best parts? You only need small amounts of each color, making it perfect for using up scraps!
Crochet Pattern: Adorable Witch Amigurumi Keychain
What I love most about this keychain witch is how endlessly customizable she is! Once you get the basic pattern down, you can change it up in so many ways:
- Color Variations – Think candy corn witch, pastel witch, or even a Christmas-themed witch (because why not?).
- Hair Options – Want to give her a little fringe under the hat? Go for it! Curly locks or straight strands—whatever fits your style.
- Accessories – I made a teeny broomstick for one, and another witch holds a mini pumpkin charm. You can really have fun with it.
Honestly, after making my first, I started designing a whole mini coven. I named them, gave them personalities, and now I’m thinking about turning them into zipper pulls, party favors, and even Halloween garland!
