Wood Ring Key Chain
Designed By Julie A. Bolduc
This key chain is made from a 3" wooden ring that has had a screw eye and split ring added to it. Actually this would make a great bazaar item. It is fairly quick to make and very inexpensive as well.
Materials Needed
Small amount luster sheen. Rose was used in the example.
Size C/2 2.75mm aluminum crochet hook
1 wooden ring 3" x .5"
power drill
1/16" drill bit
1 Screw Eye .5"
1 small split key ring
Yarn Thickness 2mm
Gauge: 6sc = 1"
Finished Size: 3.5" diam
Skill Level: Beginner
Instructions
Drill hole into wooden ring anywhere on the outside of it. Screw the screw eye into it. Put ring onto screw eye. (You can order a ring with all of this already done if you like. Just email me for details.)
RND 1: Tie yarn onto ring just to the left of the screw eye. Sc in ring. *Ch3. 2sc in ring. Rep from * until wooden ring is completely filled. I did not count how many times. Just repeat it until you fill it up. Then join w/slst to first sc. Fasten off and weave ends into work.
You can use worsted weight acrylic or cotton yarn and an H/8 5mm aluminum hook for faster, more bulky results.

Random Quick Tip!
Printing onto Paper Bags!Did you know you can print onto brown paper bags? You can! Just cut them down to the size you need for your printer and put them into the paper tray! I mainly have printed on the larger grocery bags we get from our local grocery store. I just cut them to the 8½" x 11" size for my inkjet printer and it works!
