Note that this is a knitting pattern, not a finished creature. The pattern will come to you as a pdf file digital download. If you would like to have one knitted, I can knit one for you in your choice of colors as a custom order. It will take about 3-4 weeks.

Knit yourself a Charming Chinese dragon! Her bright colors will cheer up any room. This pattern is written for intermediate to experienced knitters and uses many techniques. You will need to know Kitchener stitch or 3-needle bind-off, knitted cast-on, I-cord, w&t, picking up stitches and circular knitting. Most of the pattern is knitted without seams and only the head and legs are knitted separately and then sewn onto the body. The head is knitted in 1 piece.

This pattern uses about 55g of Noro Kureyon sock yarn and If you use this yarn you will obtain a dragon about 24” long, but you can use any weight yarn so long as you choose needles to give a gauge that is tight enough so that the stuffing does not show through the knitting. You will need a couple of yards of yarn in different colors for the eyes and teeth.

You will need double point needles and 2 circular needles.
The body is stabilized with chenille sticks and filled with polyester fill.
