Todays daily new amigurumi free crochet pattern is Amigurumi Fierce Little Dragon.
I want to give you some informations about this amigurumi free pattern ; Fierce Little Dragon.
Materials:
Approx 35g double knitting weight yarn, of whichever colour or
colours you wish to use for your dragon.
Small amount of cream/beige yarn to sew claws.
Stuffing.
1 pair 7.5 mm safety eyes or beads of a similar size for eyes (or you
can embroider the eyes, so a small amount of yarn to do that).
Tapestry needle.
3.5mm hook (US E hook).
Finished size: approximately 28cm/11” nose to tip of tail, 20cm/8″
wingspan.
Abbreviations:
ch = chain
st = stitch or stitches
ss = slip stitch
sc = single crochet (US), double crochet (UK)
hdc = half double crochet (US), half treble crochet (UK)
dc = double crochet (US), treble crochet (UK)
fpsc = front post single crochet
fphdc = front post half double crochet
fpdc = front post double crochet
tog = together
sc2tog = decrease by working two sc together
YOH = Yarn over hook
FO = fasten off
Special stitch instructions:
Fpsc, fphdc or fpdc: work stitch (sc, hdc or dc) by putting your hook
from right to left around the back of the post of the next stitch on
the previous row. This will create a ridge on the other side of your
work.
Notes:
This dragon is made mostly in rounds, although the wings are made
in rows. Do not join rounds unless told to, use a stitch marker to
mark the start of a round – a small piece of different coloured yarn
placed under the stitch at the start of the round will do. To start a
round, you can use the magic ring method, but I prefer (ch2, work
6 sc into 1st ch). If you work the 6 sc over the tail of yarn as well
you can use that to pull the hole tight.
Stuff the body as you go along, not too tightly so that the dragon
can bend its neck and tail.

Ss along the back of the original ch (19 st) until you get to the tip of
the wing. Make claw – ch 3, turn, miss 1st ch, ss in next ch, sc in
next ch. FO leaving a good length of yarn. Use this to secure the
last claw to the rest of the wing, then take yarn through wing to its
base, ready to sew onto body. Weave in ends.
Ears (make 2):
Ch 6, turn.
Skip 1st st, sc, dc, sc, ss. Leave the last ch and ss into the back of
the previous 4 st. FO, leaving a length of yarn.
Completing your dragon:
All the body parts ready to be assembled – the wing on the left shows the
top and the wing on the right shows the ridged underside.
Sew the spikes along the back from just behind the ears to the tip
of the tail. Take your time to make sure they are straight and in the
exact middle of the back. This will be helpful when you try to
position the wings and the legs.
If you haven’t used safety eyes, embroider eyes or sew on beads
for eyes. Embroider a roughly diamond shape in a contrasting
colour, then use black for the pupils so they look a bit like cat’s
eyes.
Sew the ears onto head above eyes, going over the last chain
several times to create the brow bone shape. Weave in any ends
Sew the legs on in the positions shown.
Sew on the wings a little distance from either side of the spikes with
the front edge about level with the front legs. The ridged side
should be the underside of the wings.
Your fierce little dragon is all finished now!
