Celebrate the Lunar New Year or Chinese New Year with TOFT’s Beaded Dragon! Designed by Kerry Lord and adorned with light-catching glass beads, this special dragon is one of the most intricate members of the menagerie that will keep your crochet hook busy and your mind occupied.

Those born in the Year of the Dragon are believed to be strong and independent, with a yearning for support and love. According to tradition, a dragon is powerful, energetic and visionary leader who possesses the keenest sense of self among the twelve animals in the Chinese zodiac calendar.
