Here Be Dragons!

Here he is! I was scrolling through Pinterest one day and found this really cool pattern for a celestrial dragon by hookedbykati.com and was like.. hmmm… who do I know that needs their own personal dragon? Ah yes! My cousin who enjoys Dungeons and Dragons gaming with her friends – that’s who! So I set out on a mission to make him.

Her request was for black with hot pink trimmings. I knew better. I am in love with Red Heart’s “Polo Stripe” yarn. It reminds me of magic and mermaid tails. The indigo and violet gradient with electric magenta, cobalt blue, and sea foam are a fabulous combination for creating magical creatures. Combined with the black body and the Red Heart “Minty” green horns you’ve got a winning combination.

I added wings – because why not? They were not originally included with the Celestrial Dragon pattern, BUT they were included with the Vincent the Dragon pattern so I snagged that information and added wings. They are lightweight and stable with the added security of a frame made of pipe cleaners twisted together and inserted into the black edging.With his wrap-around style, he can rest on your arm or your shoulder.

I think he’s just awesome! Do you want your own dragon? Message me at my Etsy shop and we can talk deets!
