Meet Petrie, a little dragon who wants to grow up to be just as big and brave as the dragons in fairy tales and bedtime stories.

She can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My Lil Petrie is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using two colors. You only need a little bit of each color-- perfect for scrap-busting!

• Fern (60 yards)
• Eggplant (20 yards)

Lil Petrie is an advanced beginner-level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet, single crochet into the bottom of a foundation chain, increases, decreases, joining pieces together with crochet, and some seaming.

The pattern has plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your little dragon.
