We will knit horns (or growths on the dragon’s head) from bobbin velor (it is thinner than plush yarn) using a hook No. 1.25.
The very first horn on the dragon’s head, which is located on the forehead, is slightly smaller than the rest. Such a small horn, we need to tie only one. It fits in this way:
1st row: dial 2 ch and knit 6 sc into the second loop from the hook (6).
2 row: repeat (1 sc, 1 increase) 3 times (9).
3 row: we knit 1 sc in each loop of the previous row (9).
4th row: repeat (2 sc, 1 increase) 3 times (12).
Big horns 6 pieces. In order to connect them, it is necessary to tie a small horn (all 4 rows), and then, without tearing off the working thread, proceed to knitting the 5th row:
5 row: repeat (3 sc, 1 increase) 3 times (15).
Sewing horns to the dragon’s head, I advise this: firstly, the horns must be secured with a pin so that the part of the toy does not accidentally shift during sewing. And secondly, for sewing on these small parts it is better to use a regular thread in tone yarn horns and a needle for sewing. Sewing details with plush or velor yarn is extremely difficult.
Wings and Ears
The wings and ears for the dragon fit in one pattern.
1 row: we collect 6 ch Starting from the second loop from the hook, we knit: 2 sc, 3 sc in one loop, 2 sc (7). Expand knitting.
2 row: 3 sc, 3 sc in one loop, 3 sc (9). Expand knitting.
3 row: 4 sc, 3 sc in one loop, 4 sc (11). Finish knitting parts.
Claws on paws, stripes on the tummy, eyebrows and eyes of the dragon are made using the technique of dry felting.
I love dragons ! Thank you for sharing your work
