 **Pat­tern Instruc­tions:** Begin by mak­ing a slip knot and chain­ing your key­chain’s desired num­ber of stitch­es. Then, work in sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es across, adding bright col­ors or dif­fer­ent col­ors as you like to cre­ate a fun, easy gift.

**Flip-Flop Design:** Now, let’s cre­ate the flip-flop part. We will use a free cro­chet pat­tern for flip-flops, which is per­fect for this project. Cro­chet the flip-flop soles, then use the dia­mond stitch for the straps. You can adjust the size for an ide­al fit.
