Sitting baby dragon
This baby dragon still has a lot of growing up to do before he becomes the magnificent creature gliding in the clouds. Right now he still prefers sitting on his nest, waiting for his spikes to grow and sharpen and wings to sprout from his back.
Includes one PDF file, 12 pages. Pattern is written in English, using US crochet terminology. I included detailed instructions, many step-by-step photos and useful tips and tricks.

17,5 cm (7”) tall, when crocheted with DK weight cotton and bamboo blend and a 2,50 mm crochet hook.
