Coca-Cola Bottle Keychain – Complete Step-by-Step Pattern

1. Gathering Your Supplies

To create this iconic bottle, we'll use smooth cotton yarn for crisp stitch definition and that classic bottle shape.

  • Yarn: Worsted weight cotton or acrylic blend (e.g., YarnArt Jeans, Catania, or similar). You will need small amounts of:
    • Brown: For the bottle body (approx. 20g)
    • Red: For the label and cap (approx. 15g)
    • White: For the logo and neck ring (tiny amount)
  • Hook: 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm (choose a size that gives you a tight, stuff-proof gauge)
  • Notions:
    • Keychain hardware (split ring and lobster clasp or keychain ring)
    • Poly-fil stuffing (small amount)
    • Tapestry needle
    • Scissors
    • Stitch markers
    • Optional: Red embroidery floss for the logo details
  • Finished Size: Approximately 10-12 cm (4-5 inches) tall including hardware

What you'll master: Working in continuous rounds, surface embroidery for logos, and assembling a multi-colored amigurumi.

6. The Coca-Cola Logo (White)

This is embroidered directly onto the red label.

Instructions:

  • Thread your tapestry needle with white yarn or embroidery floss.
  • Position the red label around the middle of the brown bottle body (over R10-11).
  • Using backstitch or split stitch, embroider "Coca-Cola" in the classic script font across the center of the red label.
    • Tip: If you're not confident freehanding the script, you can draw it lightly with a pencil first, or use a simple block letter "Coca" for a cute, simplified look.
  • Secure the ends on the back of the label.

What you'll master: Surface embroidery and creating iconic branding details.

7. Assembly & The Magic of Details

Now for the magic moment where your bottle comes to life!

  1. Attach the Label: Wrap the red label around the middle of the bottle body. Using your long tails, sew the ends of the label together at the back and sew the top and bottom edges to the brown body.

  2. Attach the Cap: Position the red cap on top of the white neck ring. Using your long tail and a tapestry needle, sew it securely in place all the way around.

  3. Attach the Keychain Hardware:

    • Take your keychain ring or lobster clasp.
    • Using the long brown tail from the bottle body (or a new piece of yarn), create a sturdy loop at the very top of the cap or through the side of the cap.
    • Attach the keychain hardware to this loop.
    • Alternative: You can insert the keychain ring directly through the top of the cap if it's secure enough.

  4. Final Touches:

    • Weave in all loose ends.
    • Adjust the stuffing if needed to make sure the bottle holds its shape.
    • Give the label a gentle press to make it lay flat.

What you'll master: Multi-step assembly and attaching functional hardware.
