Included here are instructions for making a dragon egg dice bag. The instructions are for a bag with 8 scales around, but you can make the base bigger to add more scales (and have a larger bag).

With a size G crochet hook (4.25mm) and medium weight (4) acrylic yarn, my finished bag measured around 3” in diameter and 4” tall (inside the bag) - also doubles as a soda cozy!

The pattern uses a modified crocodile stitch. If you are unfamiliar with crocodile stitch, I found the chart and explanation on this site helpful - http://moiracrochets.hubpages.com/hub/Crocodile-Crochet-S...

Materials needed (for my example):
Size G (4.25 mm) Crochet hook
Yarn needle for weaving in ends and joining
Yarn used - Loops & Threads Impeccable Solids
o 1613 Gold - about 200 yards (less than one skein)
