For as long as I can remember, I have been obsessed with dragons, folklore and mythology. With my love of crochet, I want to create amigurumi that is memorable and has a story. Inspired by Chinese mythology, I created this pattern for Fuzanglong. He is a Chinese underworld dragon of hidden treasures. If it peaks your interest, you should look into the Fuzanglong myths and stories. It’s always fun to learn new things. Anyhow, I took this opportunity to really go crazy with all the sparkly and crazy soft things I love. I hope you find this guy as enjoyable as I did!

Finished size of Fuzanglong is approximately 46” in length
