Materials Needed:

• Yarn color of choice (Yarn number 744 was used for the dragon in the video, which is purple)
• Crochet hook number 4
• Scissors
• Yarn needle
• Optional: Different yarn color for the wings, horns, and other details

Pattern Overview:

• The dragon is constructed in parts: hands, feet, tail, body, and head.
• Each part is crocheted separately and then assembled to form the dragon.

Hands (Make 2):

• Start with a magic circle or 2 loops.
• In the first loop, make 6 single crochet (sc) stitches.
• Increase (2 sc in each stitch) in the next round to have 12 stitches.
• Work 3 rows up with 12 sc each, without increases.
• Decrease 6 times in the next row, making visible decreases for a “puffier” appearance.
• Work 5 rows with 6 sc each.
• Crochet the two sides together with 3 stitches and leave a long yarn end for sewing if not crocheting directly to the body.

Do not stuff the hands.

Tail:

• Start with a magic circle or 2 loops.
• Make 6 sc in the second loop. This is the first row.
• 6 sc around for the second row.
• 1 sc, then an increase, repeated 3 times for a total of 9 stitches.
• Follow a pattern of increases detailed in the video, adding stitches gradually until the tail is formed.

The last steps involve increasing stitches in specific patterns to shape the tail. Follow the row-by-row increases as explained.

Feet (Make 2):

• Start with 2 loops.
• Make 6 sc in the second loop.
• Increase 6 times to have 12 stitches.
• 1 sc, then an increase (repeat 6 times).
• Work on increasing stitches and rows as per the details in the video to form the feet, incorporating decreases to shape the feet. Stuff lightly before finishing.

Body:

• Start with a magic circle or 2 loops.
• Work in rounds to create a spherical shape, increasing stitches as detailed to widen the body.
• Insert the tail, then crochet feet into the body at specified stitch counts.

Continue with the pattern, adding decreases to form the body’s shape.

Details on Specific Stitch Patterns:

• Increases involve making 2 sc in one stitch to widen the part.
• Decreases can be either visible or hidden as preferred; they narrow the crochet work. For a visible decrease, pull through all loops on the hook together. For a hidden decrease, only use the front loops of the stitches.
