Abberviations

mr, sc n = magic ring – crochet n single crochet stitches in to the adjustable loop (see page 6).
• sc = single crochet stitch (double crochet stitch in UK and Australia).
• sc n = make n single crochet stitches, one in each stitch.
• inc = increase – make two single crochet stitches in the same stitch.
• inc3 = double increase – make three single crochet stitches in the same stitch.
• dec = decrease – crochet two stitches together using the invisible decrease method (see page 7).
• (sc 4, inc) x n = repeat the pattern between parentheses n times.
• (sc 4, inc) x 6 (36) = number of stitches in a round after finishing round.

Notes

• Do not join at the end of each round, work in a continuous spiral.

the marker up after completing each round.

Head

a) Attach safety toy eyes after finishing round 18.

Tip! If your gauge is on the looser side, put a thin layer of your stuffing material between the fabric and the washer to keep it from showing through the fabric.

Place the eyes between rows 13 and 14, leaving 13 stitches (count 12 holes) between them.
Make sure you are satisfied with the placement of the eyes before pushing the washer in to place.

b) Sew the muzzle to the head. Embroider the face with cotton embroidery floss.

Tip! Use embroidery floss or a yarn that will not bleed color – toys may get wet or need to be washed.

Sew the muzzle to the head so the top edge is just below round 11.
Embroider the face.
Fasten all yarn tails securely with a knot under the head.

Body

Tip! You may need to make small adjustments to make sure the body will fit snugly around the rattle.

a) Insert the plastic egg into the body after finishing round 7 and make sure the body fits snugly around the rattle. You may need to increase or decrease the number of increases on round 5. Make the same number of decreases on round 15.

b) Insert the plastic egg in to the body after finishing round 14. If the body is too short or too long, add or skip a round of single crochet stitches, before starting to decrease.

Assembly

a) Finish all the pieces, stuff them and hide yarn tails.
Tip! You can either leave one long yarn tail on the head and one of the spikes and use them to assemble the whole dragon or leave shorter yarn tails on each piece and use them to sew on individual pieces. Make sure you fasten all yarn tails securely.

b) Sew arms, legs and tail to the body and spikes to the head, body and tail.
Tip! Sew the head to the body first. Use sewing pins to attach the pieces to the head and body before sewing to find the right placement and get a symmetrical result.

Sew the head to the body.
Add a bit more stuffing beforeclosing the seam.
Sew the arms, legs and tail to the body.
Sew on the spikes, starting from the nose – 1, 5, 3, 2 (in pairs), 4 (on the back), 3, 2, 1(on the tail.)
Add a ribbon around the neckor a bow to the head. Stitch it to place with matching thread
