Crochet pattern “Dragon El’Ejin”
2 cm [0.8 in]

Did you ever see a dragon as whimsical as this one? When they hatch, they are microscopically small! Full-grown dragons are just as tiny. Let’s crochet one of them!
When using the materials listed (one strand of embroidery floss and a 0.5 mm crochet hook [US steel crochet Hook Size 18]), the resulting dragon will measure all of 2 cm [0.8 in] when seated.

Materials and tools.

• Embroidery floss in Main Color, skein separated (stripped) into individual strands. (I use DMC brand cotton embroidery floss). May be substituted with thin sewing thread. The thinner the thread, the smaller the bunny will turn out.
• Embroidery floss in an additional color for the wings, scales, and tail.
• A length of black sewing thread for the eyebrows and nostrils.
• A length of white sewing thread for the white of the eye.
• Rip-resistant thread for cinching. (I used sturdy sewing thread held double.)
• Crochet hook 0.5 mm [US Steel Crochet Hook Size 18].
• Glass toy eyes diameter 2 mm [0.01 in]. I ordered mine from AliExpress. (What to do if eyes in this size are not available? You can make your own from polymer clay and cover them with a glossy enamel finish, or use seed beads.)
• Glue gel, “Moment” brand super glue.
• Thin beading needle, diameter 0.45 mm [0.02 in].
• Sharp nail scissors.
• Stuffing (polyester fiberfil).
• A toothpick or broken felting needle – used to insert stuffing.
• For blushing – oil pastel and toothpick.
