KNIT-A-LONG
I am excited to announce the I Am Dragon Remix II Knit-A-Long! Join me on this new dragon-themed adventure!

The Knit-Along (KAL) is scheduled to start on November 3rd, 2024, On this date, the complete pattern will be released. I will host Zoom Cast-On Party to kick off the event on that day. The exact time and the Zoom link are posted below. I invite you to join this virtual gathering, allowing us to collectively cast on the design!

I’ve just launched a new I Am Dragon II Remix KAL thread in my Ravelry Group. Come join us to share photos of your yarn, beads, works in progress, and thoughts. Everyone is welcome!

The pattern spans over 8 pages, offering a comprehensive guide with written instructions, chart, photo tutorials, and convenient links to online video tutorials.

ABOUT THE DESIGN
I Am Dragon II Remix is a sequel to my original design, I Am Dragon II, which was published in 2019. While I hold a special fondness for the original pattern and the yarn used, I saw an opportunity for enhancement. What distinguishes these two designs? The sequel features beads, a revised pattern description and chart, different needle sizes and finished measurements, among other updates. Please watch my vlog to learn more about it.

This one-of-a-kind knitwear piece has the power to transport you into the world of myth. Featuring intricately textured 3D dragon scales, each adorned with three beads, the design may look complex, but it’s surprisingly straightforward to create (no short rows!) The piece is elegantly secured around your neck with a luxurious leather and white brass closure from JUL Designs.

You can connect with me on Instagram at alexandra.davidoff.studio and share your creations using the hashtags #iamdragon2remixkal and #iamdragon2remix. I would be thrilled to see your interpretations!
