Portrait of a Dragon is the latest beautiful blanket design from Dragons Flight Designs. This design is particularly exciting as this is a reversible pattern where each side of the blanket is equally stunning.

The pattern comes in 3 different versions
1) a graph/chart with symbols in a printable format,
2) a graph/chart with symbols in a screen friendly format 3) a written pattern for those unable to read graphs/charts.
4) a graph/chart with symbols for a single sided blanket (no picture on reverse)

To help you with the pattern I have also put in the the following
1) Written guidance is provided for the different symbols used in the reversible pattern
2) A small basic mosaic graph is provided with written instructions on how to use it so you can practice before attempting the main pattern, ideal if you’ve never tried mosaic patterns before.
3) A video tutorial is also available on my facebook and tiktok pages (Dragons Flight Designs) which guides you through the symbols and stitches required for the reversible pattern.

Unlike many mosaic patterns this pattern stacks double crochets. This means your finished blanket will not be smooth like standard mosaic blankets but have a more textured feel, this has been deliberately done as dragons do not have smooth edges in real life, they are textured.

Total weight of lap blanket approx. 850/900g & 2600/2900 yards (not including border)
Colours from the Stylecraft Special Double Knit range

I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I enjoyed making it and I’d be delighted to receive any feedback or pictures of your finished blankets.
