Sonic Dragon Amigurumi

Recently I read Suzanne Collin's Underlander series, and it's given me a love for bats.  Combine that with a love for dragons, and you have a bat-dragon.  Which, incidentally exists in DragonVale.  I present, the Sonic Dragon!


Again, I used a lot of the same parts fro previous dragons for this dragon so it was a breeze for the most part.  For her nose and tail "fin" I used this tiny heart pattern, in both the big and small version.


The only thing that gave me trouble was the ear "fins".  For those it just required a bit of patience.  I like how they turned out though, they look silly!  A good silly.  I really liked the eyelashes from the Sonic Dragon's design so I made sure to include them. 


This'll probably be my last DragonVale dragon for a while, I've found some patterns I want to try.  I may come back to these when I make a dent in my queue.

Fire Dragon Amigurumi

I'm on a crochet kick!  Got another cutie for y'all.


Still hooked on DragonVale.  (Get it, hooked, like... crochet hook!?) In my desperate effort to make a pair of wings that I could be proud of I decided to tackled another dragon.  I had a lot of red yarn so I went for the game's iconic fire dragon.


A lot of this is just recycled from the plant dragon, so making up the pattern wasn't hard at all.  In the game, the adult fire dragon had a bunch of teeth so i gave him little teeth and he seems happy about it.


Look at those wings!  I liked the wings I made for the plant dragon, but those are more feathery wings.  This little guy needed a pair of bat/dragon wings.  i think they turned out really well!

Plant Dragon Amigurumi


Well, I finished school and didn't exactly know what to do.  So I picked up the crochet hook.



So recently I started playing an iPod game called DragonVale and it is just the cutest thing ever.  There are so many little dragons with absolutely the cutest design.  It's adorable.  Since I had an excess of green yarn I went ahead and made the plant dragon from the game.


He doesn't stand on his own, but if you prop his tail against something he can manage it.  This guy was fun, I just kind of made up the design as I went.  Sometimes I tried to remember what I did on Toothless, but for the most part I did it on the fly.


Those wings.  Those wings were the hardest thing ever.  I kept trying to come up with a design but it never worked.  I had a couple of judges to help me decide on designs, and eventually I came up with what you see here!  They turned out lovely, it was worth working through a few designs...
