Crochet Twintail Phone Bag Charm: A Step-by-Step Guide116

Hey crochet lovers! Today, we're diving into a super cute and practical project: a crocheted twintail phone bag charm! This adorable little accessory is perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your phone, keys, or even your bag. It's surprisingly easy to make, even for beginners, and the customizable nature allows you to experiment with different colors and yarn weights to create your perfect pair of twintails.

This tutorial will guide you through the process step-by-step, using clear instructions and helpful images (though I can't actually *show* images here, imagine them!). We'll cover the materials you'll need, the basic stitches involved, and how to assemble the entire charm. So grab your hook and yarn, and let's get started!

Materials You Will Need:

Before we begin, gather these materials:
Yarn: Choose two colors of your favorite worsted weight yarn. One for the base of the twintails and another for the hair ties (or even add highlights!). A small amount of each color is sufficient. Approximately 20-30 yards total depending on desired length.
Crochet Hook: Select a hook size appropriate for your chosen yarn weight. A 4.0mm or 5.0mm hook is a good starting point for worsted weight yarn.
Scissors: For snipping your yarn.
Yarn Needle: For weaving in your ends.
Small Bag Charm/Ring: This will attach to your phone or bag. You can find these at craft stores.
Stuffing (optional): If you want slightly plump twintails.

Basic Stitches:

This project primarily uses the following stitches:
Magic Ring (or Chain 4, slip stitch to first chain): To create a neat foundation.
Single Crochet (sc): This is your main stitch. If you are new to crochet, there are many excellent online tutorials for learning this stitch.
Increase (inc): Two single crochets worked into the same stitch. This will help create the rounded shape of the ponytail.
Decrease (dec): Two single crochets worked together. This will be used towards the ends of the twintails to create a nice point.

Creating One Twintail:

Let's begin with one twintail. Follow these steps:
Round 1: Make a magic ring (or chain 4, slip stitch to the first chain) and work 6 sc into the ring.
Round 2: Increase in each stitch (12 sc).
Rounds 3-6: ( *sc, inc* ) repeat around. This gradually increases the width of the ponytail.
Rounds 7-10: ( *2sc, inc* ) repeat around. This will slowly increase the ponytail while maintaining a more gradual shape.
Rounds 11-15: Sc in each stitch around. This creates the main body of the twintail.
Rounds 16-20: ( *2sc, dec* ) repeat around. This begins the tapering of the twintail.
Rounds 21-25: ( *sc, dec* ) repeat around. Continue tapering.
Fasten off: Leave a long tail for sewing.

Repeat steps 1-8 to create a second twintail.

Adding the Hair Ties:

Once both twintails are complete, we'll add the hair ties. This can be done using a contrasting yarn color:
With the contrasting yarn, chain a length approximately 10-12 inches long.
Fold the chain in half and create a loop around the base of one twintail, secure with a slip stitch.
Repeat for the second twintail.

Assembling the Phone Bag Charm:

The final step is to assemble the twintails and attach the charm:
Carefully sew the two twintails together at the back, close to the hair ties.
(Optional) Lightly stuff the twintails with filling for added plumpness. This step is optional but adds a cute, fluffy look.
Attach the small bag charm/ring to the top of the twintails using the yarn tails or additional thread.

And there you have it! Your adorable crocheted twintail phone bag charm is complete. Remember to weave in all your loose ends for a neat finish. You can customize this pattern by using different yarn colors, adjusting the length of the twintails, or even adding little details like bows or beads. Experiment and have fun with it!

Happy crocheting!
