This is my Eastern Dragon Crochet Pattern. The project is great for crocheters with intermediate skill levels and up.

I have a FREE crochet video tutorial for this crochet dragon on my YouTube channel!
This paid version of the dragon amigurumi pattern is simply for those of you who prefer a PDF pattern with written instructions and step-by-step pictures that can be accessed offline or printed.

The PDF crochet pattern includes written instructions which are accompanied by many step-by-step photos.
The pattern also includes photo tutorials on how to make a magic ring, invisible decreases in single crochet, invisible finishes and closing small rounds.

LANGUAGES: English (US) only

The dragon will be approx. 40 cm / 16” long, if using the indicated hook size and yarn weight. If you want it to be larger or smaller, you could use a different yarn weight and adjust the hook size accordingly.

The nostrils and eyelines are embroidered.
