Tiny Teapot Keychain Crochet Pattern | Free Crochet Patterns

As a born and bred British person, I have been brought up on a diet of tea and cake!


In fact, I've spent many afternoons, putting the world to rights over a cup of tea, with my closest friend since we went to school together!


This crochet pattern is 100% inspired by her good friendship and all the laughs we've had over the last (nearly) 30 years since secondary school. I'm sure her mum used to wonder were all the biscuits went after I'd been round!


This tiny amigurumi teapot keychain would make a perfect gift for any tea lovers as an addition to a packet of their favourite blend of tea and a new mug for them to pour their cuppa from. 


Plus, the practical factor of the round shape makes it even easier to find your keys in the depths of your handbag!


You'll find the free crochet pattern to make your own tiny teapot below.
