A Dragon Lurking


My daughter love dragons, so a few years ago I decided to tat her one for her birthday. This was in the days before I met Anne Bruvold's splendid dragons and I couldn't find a pattern. So I decided to just make up a dragon as I went along. The wings were inspired by Mary Konior's spinningwheel mat, can you tell? I sent the dragon off to my daughter and a picture of it to Jane Eborall who said I MUST write the pattern down. So I tatted another dragon, scribbling down notes as I went. But I never got around to typing them out neatly. Should I? Does anyone else want to know how I made the dragon?
