Anything that works up quick? Maybe mini bees, octos, fish (there’s one in my shop!) chickens, ducks and turtles (or any keychain stuff)

This is kind of funny, but almost all of my stuff is below $10. So I got LOTS of ideas! Flipper Friends · Free Amigurumi Crochet Pattern: Whale, Narwhal, Dolphin - Sweet Softies I love thses guys so much! They are so cute and chubby. I sell them for $10 since they take 30-45 mins.
https://www.sweetsofties.com/2023/02/baby-octopus.html ADORABLE! I make the tentacles 1 stitch longer than in the pattern. I sell them for $4, or $5 with a keychain. They take 10 mins.
Triceratops Dinosaur Amigurumi – Club Crochet This is a really popular one! They are really quick and really cute. Takes 20-30 mins. I sell for $8.
20-Minute Panda Bear · Free Amigurumi Crochet Pattern - Sweet Softies So quick, so cute, such a good seller! Takes 20 mins, or just under. I sell for $5.
Jade Gauthier-Boutin on Instagram: "✨FREE BABY JELLYFISH PATTERN✨ Here’s another free pattern. I’ve updated my original baby jellyfish pattern to make it quicker and easier/better for plush yarn! I hope you’ll like it! Hint: perfect for markets or keychains 🪼 Will be available as a PDF (and in French) for free on my Ravelry very soon! #crochetpattern #freecrochetpattern #freeamigurumipattern #amigurumifreepattern #freepattern #amigurumipattern #jellyfishpattern #crochetersofinstagram #amigurumijellyfish #crochetforbeginners" This one isnt as popular as All from Jade’s other ones, but it is SO cute! Takes 15-20 mins. I sell for $5.
Most of these (except the first one) can be turned into keychains. It takes just a little bit more work and cost, but you can charge more for them too!
And last but not least, here are some video round ups of quick projects perfect for markets!

I like making keyrings (keychains). I have a Christmas tree one but it has rather uneven eyes
