Crochet Coin Bag: Fish Shaped, Fish Shaped Keychain

 

Hello friends,

Last week I made this Coin Bag abd Keychain. Both have same pattern, only orange coin bag is made in Vardhamaan Millenium yarn and 3.5 mm hook where as Olive green Keychain is a thin yarn Hobby stores and hook used is 1.75 mm.

Coin Bag: length 5.5", width 3.5" and weight 11 gm.

Keychain: length 3.5", and weight: 8 gm.

For coin bag and keychain both, I make two fishes as per following pattern then while joining them, I put some part open for coin bag and joined completely for keychain with some stuff inside.

Both looks very pretty. You can gift kids or use yourself also.

PATTERN: Ch17

R1: sc2, hdc2, dc3, (dc2)3 times, dc3, hdc2, sc2, ch1, on other side also work similarly that is sc2, hdc2, dc3, (dc2)3 times, dc3, hdc2, sc2, sl st in opposite side's st.

 

R2: ch1, sc2, hdc2, dc10, hdc2, sc2, sc1 in ch1-sp, on other side also, sc2, hdc2, dc10, hdc2, sc2.

R3: hdc7, (hdc2)3 times, hdc7, sc1, 

  

then for wing: ch7, from second ch, sc1, hdc1, dc2, hdc1, sc1, sl st in corner st.

Again for second wing repeat. 

sc2, hdc 7, (hdc2) in 3 sts, hdc 7, sl st in last st.

Make two pieces like this. 

Place wrong side on wrong side, place markers in order to fix the space which we want to be open (approximately 13-14 sts)

Join by sc from right side in 5 sts, then make a wing:

(sc1,dc1) in one st, (dc1,tr1) in next, (tr1, db tr 1) in next, ch5 join by sl st in the same st. 

along the tail also join by sc at the corner of tail, ch1-picot, then again sc joint on other side of first tail then sc at the next st one row down. Then make similar border on second wing and then on other side till the marker. Then make sl sts on those 14 sts which we don't want to join (sew).

Join remaining part after second marker.

BELT: Make chs 51, sl st in each ch from second, join on other side.

Sew press button.
