This is a free pattern for the Crochet Apple Keychain Pouch. This crochet apple pattern is made using Dishie cotton yarn from WeCrochet.
I’m always looking for quick makes to use up my ever-growing scrap yarn pile. This quick and easy mini apple crochet pouch is perfect for using up those scraps.
I love how multi-functional this little crochet apple pouch is! You could use this for so many things including Aldi quarters, stitch markers, air pods, or air tags…I’m always in need of something to keep my small things in so they don’t get lost. This handy mini crochet pouch is perfect for that.
These cute little crochet apple keychains would be great as last-minute gifts or as craft fair inventory!

Pattern Video
Recently I created a new type of crochet alongs and they are called Design CALs. They are hosted as part of my “The Crochet Club” membership and can only be accessed as a member.
These Design CALs are super special because members have input on how the pattern turns out. We start the pattern with an idea and every week, for up to 4 weeks, the pattern is extended until it’s done. All through video tutorials, one each week.
There is a new Design CAL each month now. Sometimes we even have several Design CALs each month, depending on how long each pattern takes to finish.
This Crochet Apple Keychain Pouch Pattern was designed in fall of 2022 in The Crochet Club. It was a highly requested pattern.
You’ll be able to find all the video tutorial in The Crochet Club as they are exclusive to the membership. But the pattern is now accessible also on my website for you with ads, or Ravelry, Etsy, and LoveCrafts as a pdf without ads.
