Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Small Eastern Dragon (printable PDF-file / 88 pages)
Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this pattern is for a Small Eastern Dragon! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.
Do you want your very own little danger noodle dragon? This is your pattern!! This pattern contains instructions for the Body and accessories to personalize your very own Small Eastern Dragon, everything in the photos is included in the pattern!! This pattern is also compatible with the Adult Dragon Crafty Intentions pattern - you can swap out the heads and other ornamentation options to create an even more complex dragon!! The effect is amigurumi-like, though there are some distinct techniques used that are not used in single crochet-only amigurumi. The gauge is not crucial to the pattern as long as the stitches are tight enough to hold stuffing.
This pattern is 88 pages long. The last 21 pages of the PDF are a text-only printer-friendly version of the pattern. To conserve on printer ink, you can selectively print these pages. However, I strongly recommend you still refer to the photographic illustrations throughout the pattern if you have any questions.
This pattern is available in English, German, and French. Translations can be found in the ZIP file attached. Diese Anleitung ist sowohl auf Deutsch erhältlich. Une traduction française du patron est maintenant disponible.
