Dragons In My Kitchen! ~ Free Pattern with Video Series


Let's crochet a Dragon,
Can I start by saying, "Whew!" I can't believe it, the pattern, parts and assembly post plus 14 videos are done! This was a ton of work and for a few days I thought I'd never get here but here I am! I hope you enjoy making your dragon.

Written Pattern and Video Links:
The written pattern is divided into 3 parts, maybe bookmark this page for easy finding later. Amount of yarn needed and hook size are given below the dragon with the marshmallow.

Part one: The Written pattern is here (the supplies list is in part one)
Part Two: Parts and assembly of parts here
Part Three: Assembly of the dragon here
Playlist of Videos that cover everything in the written pattern  here


Marshmallows and Fire,
Fire for Dragon is in the video playlist.
Marshmallow pattern is here




Size of Dragon:
Finished dragon using materials I've suggested will give you a dragon that's 16-18 inches tall.You can make it bigger by using a bulky yarn and bigger hook or make the dragon smaller by using a lighter weight yarn and smaller hook.

A Video For Every Written Part:

The video series for the dragon will take you row by row of each and every part of the dragon. I show everything, I've left nothing out. Use what you need and skip past what you don't need. Print off the written pattern to follow along. I would strongly suggest watching the assembly of the head video and the assembly of the dragon video even if you know what you're doing.

How Much Yarn Is Needed:
The green dragon is made with Red Heart Comfort yarn Emerald 3233
The bluish looking one is Red Heart Comfort Yarn Peacock 3193
Red one is 2 rolls of Red Heart Super in Saver Cherry Red
The Comfort yarn comes in jumbo rolls. One of those rolls is more than enough to make one dragon

Hook Size:
With the yarn mentioned above (worsted weight) I used a 4.5mm but for some that size will be too big and they will see gaps, it depends on an individual's tension. You can use any size you want to, if you crochet on the loose side then a 3.75mm to a 4.00mm might be the better hook to use.

How To Print The Pattern:
Use the free service found here to print off the dragon pattern

    1. there's only one dragon pattern to print.

      There is one dragon with the option to make a face that's more sleepy or one that's more fierce, it will tell you in the written pattern once you get to the face parts which is which.

      The written pattern has a series of videos for each part if you ever get stuck, the link to that video series is in this post.

      Everything you need to make the dragon is linked in this post.

  21. I made the sleepy dragon and I love him so much. I was planning on giving him away, but instead I kept him and put him on my stereo in my living room. Everyone who comes in asks me where I got the dragon and I tell them that I made it and they are amazed.

  22. Dear Sharon,

    What an absolutely lovely dragon. There isn't such a lovely variety of crochet patterns in Spanish as there is in English or German, and I am trying hard to change this by contacting crochet designers like yourself.

    Both English and Spanish are my mother tongues and I have been living and working in Germany for 8 year as a translator: German to English and German to Spanish. Crocheting has been my passion since I was a child. I would very much like to translate this dragon pattern into Spanish. I would of course include, as you state,a direct link to your page.
    Looking forward to your answer
    Kind regards

  27. Thank you very much Sharon, this dragon was on the first place on my have-to-chrochet list.

  28. I made the Sleepy Dragon and I always like to take pictures of my finished projects. When I took pictures of him from different angles, his personality came shining through. He is darned cute I just love him to bits. Thank you so very much for all of your hard work on these cuties. You'll never know how much it means to me. I have designed before and I understand the time and frustration involved. My issue is I just want to crochet and not have to stop and write it down! God Bless you and keep you!

  31. I am thrilled to find this pattern! I made "Nessie" the Loch Ness monster for my reat grandson last year..his prized possession. Yesterday he approached me and said, "Nana, Nessie needs someone to marry! Could you make her a dragon?" Perfect timing! I can't wait to get this started for him.

  32. I just made your Sleepy Dragon and I'm thrilled with it. It was the first "real" project I've ever made since my wife taught me to crochet several months ago. Your pattern is first rate and the videos really made all the difference. I learned so much, and now I feel confident to try more complex patterns.
    Only REAL problem I had was those tiny cylindrical fingers. Neither myself of my wife could make them nicely with the yarn and hook I was using. Finally I faked it, chaining about 8 and SC into the chain back to the palm. I ended up with flat fingers but as the hands hang by the dragon's side, they'll do.
