What are some great quick and easy crochet patterns?

Im looking to make a bunch of fun little things to sell for my roller derby team, as were ocnstantly on the brink of being broke and always looking for new merch ideas. Whatever is cute, easy, and quick is super appreciated! Ive seen a lot of people recommend jellyfish amigurumi, and while I havent tried the easiest of the patterns, I did find that making squids is fun and quick, and not too difficult.

So please, share your favorite patterns that are good quick money makers! <3

Hello, I think it would be nice to either make merchandise focused on your team (mascot/colours) or useful things that are more likely to be bought as keychains, scrunchies and bookmarks.
You could find plenty on your own with the search bar, according to your preference and level of ability. Anyway, here are some free examples:
Stringy Ding Ding - Olive - Heart Amigurumi - Free (for a heart keychain)
Stitch by Fay - Fay Lyth - No-Sew Whale Crochet Pattern - Free (whale mini plushie, can be added to a keychain or sold as is)
A little love everyday! - Paint It Colorful - Anitha Domacin - Chubby cat amigurumi - Free (cat plushie, same as whale)
Ribbon Scrunchie by Pierrot /Gosyo Co., Ltd - Free
A little love everyday! - Paint It Colorful - Anitha Domacin - Crochet Flower Bookmark - Free (flower bookmark, can change the colours and shapes to have more variety)

or spend little coins for a bundle with more choice and make plushies:
Knot Monsters - Michael Cao - keychain edition
Knot Monsters - Michael Cao - Potted Plant edition
Knot Monsters - Michael Cao - Fast Food Edition

Happy crochet!

Hi, Ive never tried to make money with crochet but I am thinking of things that most people would like. I like the idea posted above to make items with your derby teams colors or logo. I think fingerless gloves could be easy because you could make basically a tube with a thumbhole. Otherwise, little amigurumis like a simple cat or other cute animals might appeal to lots of people.

Roller derby is so cool and Ive always admired the people who are tough enough to handle it! I could never! I hope you find some good ideas here and can continue having fun with your team :)

You could make a leaf bookmark. Theyre cute and you can make one in less than 20 minutes (at least in my experience).
