Materials Needed:
For this little bee, you can use any yarn - whether smooth or plush textures (like velour, chenille, plush, or slightly fuzzy yarn). If you’re making a keychain, go for a finer yarn, around 200-300 meters per 100 grams. With a bulkier yarn (about 100 meters per 100 grams), you’ll get a nice, plush stuffed toy.

• For this pattern, I used Sport 4-ply cotton blend yarn (330 m/100 g)
Yellow – YarnArt Jeans Bamboo #104; Light brown – YarnArt Jeans #71; Blue - YarnArt Jeans #75.
• 2 mm hook.
• Safety eyes, diameter 6 mm - 2 pieces.
• Fiberfill.
• Black cotton thread for stitching the mouth.
• Dry pink pastel for shading cheeks, brush.
• Yarn needle.
• A wooden button with two holes, 10 mm in diameter.
• Steel wire piece, 1 mm thick × 3.5 cm long.

In this pattern, I’ll guide you through creating a durable hanging loop for the top of your bee keychain. For this step, you’ll need basic wire-working tools: wire cutters and round-nose pliers (or jewelry pliers).
