Cute and Fun Tulip Card Holder Keychain Crochet Pattern

Hi there!

I really love tulips, both real ones and crochet ones, and when I wanted something to keep my bus card on my key ring I decided to make a little tulip card holder key ring. It adds a little bit of fun to the card holder and it’s useful! You can carry your bus card around with you and have easy access to it!

It uses crochet thread like my granny square placemat and simple coaster patterns! Can you tell I have a lot of the crochet thread left over? Hehe

Let’s get started!
