Please note that this is an intermediate-advanced pattern; when I designed my first dragon, I did so aiming for appearance, not for ease of pattern. But, I have had this proofread by two other crocheters, and it includes several pictures to guide you along your way.

The pattern is written out in North American terms. It calls for H and J hooks and uses the following stitches:
Chain
Slip stitch
Single Crochet
Half-double crochet

For the most part you will be working in the round. The gauge and such are listed in the pattern itself, but I do not consider them overly important.
