Enter the world of the Permian with the Scutosaurus crochet pattern! This chunky reptilian friend was not a dinosaur, it came from a time where terms like reptile and mammal were still finding their footing!

This pattern features an easy-to-do technique to add textured bumps to the back, and it features a technique that came to me in a dream that allows you to make the side flaps of the head completely no-sew!

This pattern features quite a bit of crocheting separate pieces together into a single round, so it is intended for crocheters with more advanced experience. But the instructions are written clearly enough that an intermediate crocheter can use it to take their skills to the next level!

Make a Scutosaurus as a gift for that prehistoric animal lover in your life, or make it for yourself! It’s a great conversation starter, and it’s big enough to cuddle with. Regardless of what you do with yours, I know you’ll enjoy this crochet journey!

This listing includes two pattern files: one is a professionally-designed layout of the pattern, and the other one is printer-friendly for those who love the feeling of a physical copy!

This pattern has been tested by a panel of experienced crocheters to ensure quality! It is written in English using American English terminology
