Simple dragonfly pattern that I made for a friend, and thought I would share with everyone else.

I used worsted weight yarn - but it is really universal, you can use whatever type you want, depending on how it will look when the body is stuffed. The wings do not get stuffed, they are left flat.
You will need two types colors of yarn, a 2.00mm hook or B hook, a yarn needle, and some scissors.
It barely uses any yarn at all, and is a good way to use up the extra bits of yarn you have lying around.
