Actually, I introduced you to two new amigurumi patterns today, but when I was about to close my computer, I went to Instagram one last time and came across this wonderful crocheted baby dragon. Now I will share this cute baby dragon amigurumi pattern with you. First of all, I would like to state that the blue piece on the top of the amigurumi toy is made using cotton or a similar type of yarn.

2. attach the two back legs between rnds 13 – 15 of the body with about 4 sts in between. I sewed mine angled outward so that my dragon looks like it is sitting.
3. sew on the ears on rnd 9 of the head counting up from the nose.
4. attach the spikes starting on rnd 6 of the head along the back and down the tip of the tail.
5. attach the wings on its back between rnds 16 – 20 of the body with about 3 sts in between.
