A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

A free amigurumi pattern for a crochet dragon: a sitting baby ice dragon in pale frosty blue with a white belly and muzzle. This amigurumi dragon has big glinting eyes, rosy cheeks, short icy horns, small bat-style wings and white crocheted snowflakes on its back, a lovely winter or Christmas gift. It is worked in the round in single crochet with DK yarn and a 2.5 mm hook and stands about 12 cm (4.9 in) tall; the face is embroidered, and the wings, snowflakes and spikes are flat pieces sewn on. Follow it row by row with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to see where every piece goes.

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 4 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 3.6 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 25 sc × 28 rounds); yarn about 1.9 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

0 of 97 rounds done

  1. Size before assembly: about 5.9 cm at the widest, 4.1 cm long; 15 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 8.7 cm at the widest, 6.2 cm long; 27 rounds.
  2. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  1. Size before assembly: an oval about 4.7 × 3.1 cm at the widest, 2 cm long; 7 rounds. The piece is oval: the rounds go around the chain, and on the finished toy the chain (the long side of the oval) runs side to side; the starting chain is at the front of the piece (on the finished toy). The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 2 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
  2. With frost: ch 6.
  3. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff moderately just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. A flat oval about 6.5 × 3.7 cm; 5 rounds. Worked around a chain, so it is an oval: sew it on with its long side (along the chain) running vertically, top to bottom. The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 4 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
  2. With frost: ch 9.
  3. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.9 cm at the widest, 1.5 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff moderately just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. A flat circle about 1.7 cm across; 2 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  1. Size before assembly: about 2 cm at the widest, 2.5 cm long; 8 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 4 cm at the widest, 3.1 cm long; 11 rounds.
  2. Change to ice (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R4).
  3. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 3.2 cm at the widest, 4.5 cm long; 13 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff moderately just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 110° around round 8<!-- the bend spreads over 5 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces up on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 8, on the centre top line). It is a gradual bend: with the needle and matching yarn run a line of stitches along the inner side from round 5 to round 11, one stitch in every round along one column, then pull the yarn until the piece bends to the angle (the inner side gathers by about 6 rounds) and fasten off inside.

  1. Flat motif — half circle (worked in turned rows, one layer of fabric), about 3.1 × 5.4 cm; 6 rows.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

  1. Of these: top — 1; middle — 1; low — 1; back — 1. Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest, 1.5 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Press the piece slightly flat (oval cross-section; flattened 30 %).

  1. Of these: upper — 1; lower — 1. Flat motif — star (worked in rounds, one layer of fabric), about 4 × 3.4 cm; 2 rows.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

The whole face is embroidered. Order: the eyes (black satin), then the white glints over them, then the nose and mouth, blush last. Mark the centres with pins first and compare with the picture. Bring thread ends out where a sewn-on piece will cover them, or bury them in the stuffing.

  • Embroidered eyes (on the head) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in black thread, a oval about 12 mm wide and 13 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 14, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
  • Eye glint (on the head): in white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 3.2 mm wide and 3.2 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 14, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left , then moved 2.2 mm to the right and 2.8 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
  • Eye glint (on the head): in white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 3.2 mm wide and 3.2 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 14, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right , then moved 2.2 mm to the right and 2.8 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
