Crochet Pearly Crucifix Keychain

Materials Needed:

Yarn
Crochet hook
Tapestry needle
Scissors
Liquid silicone glue for assembling
Decoration (optional, e.g., dove, pearl)
Keyring and/or earring ring for hanging

Pattern:

Magic Ring Start:

Create a magic ring.
Chain 3 (this counts as your first elongated double crochet).
Make 3 elongated double crochets inside the magic ring.

Creating the Arms of the Crucifix:

Chain 3.
Inside the same magic ring, make 4 elongated double crochets.
Repeat the process of chaining 3 and making 4 elongated double crochets until you have four groups, each separated by 3 chains.

Closing the Circle:

Close the magic ring by slip stitching into the third chain of the initial chain-3.
Tighten the magic ring to secure.

Building the Next Layers:

Transition to the next space by slip stitching.
Chain 3 and make 3 elongated double crochets in the same space.
Chain 3, then perform a spike stitch in the corresponding spot (outside the last stitch).

Repeating the Pattern:

In the same space, make another 4 elongated double crochets.
Chain 3 and slip stitch in the same space.
Continue this pattern for all spaces, ensuring you replicate the layout symmetrically for all arms of the crucifix.

Finalizing the Shape:

After completing all sides, fasten off the yarn and weave in the ends using a tapestry needle.
For color changing technique, follow the narrative provided in the scrape to change colors seamlessly between rows.

Assembling and Decoration:

If making a double-sided crucifix, create another piece following the same pattern.
Use liquid silicone glue to attach both pieces together.
Decorate with your choice of ornament (e.g., dove, pearl) by gluing it to the center or desired location on the crucifix.
