Magic Sock

The Magic Socks are a pair of objects capable of transporting entities to and from Patch Land. Through the course of the story, one of the socks is in possession of Yin-Yarn the sorcerer. He uses it to capture Kirby, King Dedede, and Meta Knight in order to send them to Patch Land, where they are turned into yarn outline versions of themselves. In the case of the latter two, they are also placed under Yin-Yarn's control, presumably using the power of the Magic Yarn.
The other sock is held by Prince Fluff, but it has no power to teleport until the kingdom of Patch Land is fully restored. Once restored, it serves as a gateway, allowing Kirby and Fluff to travel between Patch Land and Dream Land. Once Yin-Yarn is defeated, Fluff leaves one of the socks for Kirby to keep as a memento, and as a means to visit him again if Kirby so wishes.
