Lucky Ducky is a cute little duck that is always up for an adventure. He is also I guess part of my keychain collection as he was a custom request for a little girl who loves ducks. He has a little keychain added to him so that she can hang him on her school bag and take along with her. If you like the idea of this you can find more of my little key chains with this link Pocket Hug Keychain CAL. They will all be released individually later in the year. However in the mean time if you like this pattern for Lucky Ducky why not save it to your favourites for later by clicking the banner below. Thank you.

I couldn’t write my patterns without a great team with me so I want to show off some of their lovely makes of Lucky Ducky, how cute are these!

My team on this one was, Bethany Colhoff, Barbara Leafgreen, Helen Flannigan, Denise Thomas and Nancy Pratt
