Cherries

Begin at the bottom of the cherry.

Ch 2 with red or start with a magic ring.

1. 6 sc in the 1st ch or in the magic ring, 1 sl in the 1st sc (= 6 sc)

2. 2 sc in every sc (= 12 sc)

3. 2 sc in every 2nd sc (= 18 sc)

4. 2 sc in every 3rd sc (= 24 sc)

5. 2 sc in every 4th sc (= 30 sc)

6. 2 sc in every 5th sc (= 36 sc)

7. 2 sc in every 12th sc (= 39 sc)

8. to 11. 39 sc

12. 11 sc, sc 2 st together (3x) (= 36 sc)

13. 4 sc, sc 2 st together (6x) (= 30 sc)

Attach the eyes between round 10 and 11, keeping approximately 6 stitches space between them.

14. 3 sc, sc 2 st together (6x) (= 24 sc)

15. 2 sc, sc 2 st together (6x) (= 18 sc)

Stuff your cherry.

16. 1 sc, sc 2 st together (6x) (= 12 sc)

17. sc 2 st together (6x) (= 6 sc)

Fasten off. Draw the yarn end through the remaining 6 stitches and pull tight. Now insert the yarn through the cherry to the beginning and pull tight until your cherry indents slightly at the top and bottom. This gives your work a real "cherry shape". Secure the yarn and weave in the end.

Crochet another cherry.

Sew the 2 stems onto the cherries with green. Do not cut the yarn, but use it to embroider a mouth between the eyes. 

Now fasten off and weave in the end. Finally, sew the keyring chain securely between the two leaves.
