Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Hydra Dragon (printable PDF-file / 78 pages)

Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this pattern is for a Hydra Dragon! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.

Do you want your very own three headed Hydra Dragon? This is your pattern!! This pattern contains instructions for the Body and accessories to make your very own three-headed dragon, everything in the photos is included in the pattern!! 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 78 pages long. The last 17 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.
