With this design, the adult dragon’s body has an internal pocket which contains an egg which then opens to reveal the baby dragon inside that!

This pattern includes the instructions for both the dragon, her egg and her baby. The pattern contains loads of photos to help you every step of the way and is written in English, using American crochet terms.

You will need:

Yarn of your choice. Yarn weight doesn’t really matter - the size of your project will simply turn out bigger or smaller! I used Patons Smoothie DK Yarn (this is quite a thick DK yarn so it is
equivalent to aran or light worsted weight in other brands) and my finished dragon measures approx 22.5cm tall.

You will need the following colours:

Main Body Colour - I used dark green (approx. 286m).

Tummy / Wings / Horn Colour - I used light green (approx. 48m).

Egg Colour - I used yellow (approx. 19m).

Please Note = The amount of yarn used will vary according to yarn weight, hook size and stitch tension so these measurements are only a rough guide.

You will also need:

A suitable size hook for the yarn you have chosen - I used a 4mm hook.

Toy stuffing.

Black finer yarn or embroidery thread for adding the facial details.

A pair of 9mm black eyes.

A small button to fasten the egg.

Other tools you will need are a tapestry needle, some scissors and a stitch marker. You will also need a needle and thread for attaching the button to the egg.
