Majin Buu Keychain Pattern

Hi my dears ^^

I think I’m on a keychain vibe, lol, my last two patterns and this one are all keychains, hehe xD
Buut for your happiness (or not), I may assure you that the next pattern won’t be a keychain, it will be a 30cm plush. And it will be a pokemon! :D

Anyway, let me introduce you to our new family member, the Majin Buu Keychain ^^ I’ve made him as a gift for a friend, who was annoying me sooo much to make an amigurumi for him, hehe <3 Well, I love Majin Buu so much as I love Dragon Ball Z ^^ They are a piece of my childhood, which it is very good remembering :)

Aw, I must say that this Majin Buu also works fine to hang on your car’s rear-view mirror :)

 

 

Materials:

– Light pink yarn;
– Light purple yarn;
– Yellow yarn;
– White yarn;

Notes:

– I always do my crochet works using continuous rounds;
– Everytime I will do a crochet work, the first thing I do is take a look in the entirely pattern before start doing it, so, I can have an idea of how the pattern works. Well, I recommend you to do the same;
– For sewing the pieces together you will use the tapestry needle;
– To make the eyes you will use the felt;

Assembly

1. Sew his antenna to his head;

2. Sew his head to his body;

3. Sew his ears to his head;

4. Sew his pants between the Rows 5 and 6 of his body. You will have to sew sometimes more than one stitch of his pants in the same stitch of his body, because the pants circumference is bigger than his body’s circumference. Well, this is necessary to make his pants looks loose;

5. Sew the belt to his body;

6. Sew his arms to his body;

7. Sew his feet to his legs;

8. Sew his legs to his body;

9. Now, pick up the top of Majin Buu’s cloak and his cloak. It is time to sew them together, but for that, you will sew the cloak in the middle stitches of the top of his cloak, leaving 8 stitches to the left and 8 stitches to the right, like that:

10. It is time for the most annoying part: his Vest:

I – First, untangle a long piece of yellow yarn. It needs to be long enough to do the yellow edge of his vest. After that, choose one of the tangled yarns.

II – Now, you will put some contact glue or other invisible glue on the yarn and roll the yarn in order to make it very thin:

III – Now, glue the yarn around the edge of his vest. After that, do the same thing around the edge of the two holes, where his arms will pass through. After the vest is done, put it on Majin Buu.

11. Now, cut a small piece of yellow felt to make the belt’s buckle. After that, use the black paint to paint a letter “M”. Finally, glue it to his belt.

12. Sew the edges of his gloves to his gloves. Then, sew the edges of his boots to his boots:

 

13. Cut his eyes and mouth from black felt and glue it to his face. Cut the 6 holes of his head and glue them to his head. Cut the two holes of his ears and glue them.

14. Keychain: Pass a ring through some hole in the middle of his head. Put the keychain and close the ring with pliers. That’s it! ^^
