It’s as simple as this: I bought a dress with a lower neckline than usual and needed an accessory to match, so, this is another one skein project to add to my collection of little dragons.

1 skein of sport or fingering weight
In sample 2 skeins of Lentejuelas 50g by Tejedora Chile were used.
(165m/180y each).

In this case, the sequins are incorporated into the yarn, but if you don’t like them, other sparkles would also look nice. Even without sparkles too.

Last thing, you can continue knitting until you use the entire skein, leaving enough yarn for the Picot bind-off (although you can also bind off in whatever method suits you best).

By the way, Smaug is the dragon mentioned in The Lord of the Rings.
