Here is a pattern I wrote over a year ago, it was on another blog but I thought you guys might like to see it again. It’s super quick and a really good way to use up some of that scrappy yarn lying around.
Stitches explained:
Sl stitch= slip stitch, SC= Single Crochet, Ch= Chain
Body:
Chain 4 close to make ring with slip stitch
row 1: 6sc in ring (6)
row 2: 2 sc in every sc (12)
row 3: 2sc in every 2nd sc (18
row 4: 1sc in every sc (18
row 5: 1sc in every sc (18
row 6: 1sc in every sc (18
row 7: 2nd + 3rd sc together (12)
row 8: 1sc in every sc (12)
row 9: 2 sc in every 3sc (16)
row 10: 1 sc in every sc (16)
row 11: 2sc in every 4th sc (20)
row 12 1 sc in every sc (20)
Start filling body
row 13: 4th of 5th sc together (16)
row 14: 3rd + 4th together (12)
Fill body again
row 15: 2nd + 3rd together (6)
row 16: 3 x 2sc together
Finish off

row 2: 2sc in every sc (12)
row 3: 2x *1sc, 2sc in next sc* next sc 1x slip stitch
row 4: ch4 close ring with 1sc into 1st of chain
turn work over, 9 sc in ring cut yarn off keep appr 20cm length.
Attach small circle to larger circle.
Attach body and wings together, and make a smiley face and TAaaadaaa you are done!
I made these into keyrings or with a couple more they make the cutest mobile for a baby.
