hooked_on_anime_galleryAn Asian-style dragon. A gift for inarticulate.
I'd wanted to make an Asian-style dragon for over a year, so wheninarticulate responded to a meme and said she was okay with crocheted stuff, I was all, "Perfect opportunity! \o/" Aside from some minor things that could use some tweaking (there's gaps in front of the legs, since I crocheted everything green from the neck down as all one piece and didn't quite have a grasp on slip-stitching back into the main work yet, and I still feel kinda iffy about the yellow I used), I'm pretty happy with it :3b No glue on the mane; turns out just twisting is just as effective. Yay, less work!
It's also the second of only two amigurumi I've ever made with buttons. I just couldn't get yarn eyes to work out for some reason :/ It worked out, though, so I'm satisfied.
I'm planning to sell the pattern eventually, but I still need to have it tested. Luckily, I've got a volunteer lined up for that, but I've still got another pattern in line before it.
