Lion Brand Yarn Fierce Little Dragon Pattern By Lucy Ravenscar This pattern is an update of my ‘fierce but friendly really’ dragon pattern. I’ve made a few minor changes, in particular the wings are stiffer now, and I’ve written it out in a longer form that should be easier to follow. If you still want to use the old version of the pattern you can find it here: Materials: Approx 35g double knitting weight yarn, of whichever colour or colours you wish to use for your dragon. Finished size: approximately 28cm/11” nose to tip of tail, 20cm/8” wingspan. This pattern has been translated into Spanish by Ana. It has also been translated into French and German and the PDF can be downloaded using the link above. The pattern has now also been kindly translated into Dutch by Esther (eswijn on Ravelry). Especially if you’re new to crochet or making amigurumi, you might like to check out this video tutorial made by Meladora:

★ 100 Free Crochet Patterns For Beginners Knitting and crochet are actually very different even though they are often confused with each other. Both techniques create a series of loops using yarn in order to make a flat fabric, but knitting uses knitting needles, and crocheting uses hooks. Finished knitted products have a different look and feel to finished crochet products; knitting is mostly used for anything that needs to drape well or be soft and cuddly, for instance sweaters, cuddly toys and socks, whilst crochet creates sturdier, more durable and often thicker items than knitting and is good for placemats, rugs and throws. However it does come down to personal preference because all of these items can be made with either crochet or knitting – it just depends what effect you want. Other differences between the methods are that more detailed patterns and colorwork can be achieved with knitting, and knitting can also be done by machine whereas it’s impossible to crochet by machine. Have fun!
Police hunt 'The Midnight Knitter' wool graffiti bandit | Metro. A guerilla knitter is gradually covering a New Jersey town in brightly coloured wool – and authorities have no clue who the rogue crafter is. An unknown person or persons – dubbed ‘The Midnight Knitter’ by West Cape May residents – is covering tree branches and lamp poles with little sweaters under cover of darkness. Weird graffiti: When street art goes random Mayor Pam Kaithern says police are looking into the knitted graffiti, which is technically against the law, as it is being done on public property without permission. However, the mayor and many residents admit they’re delighted by the woolly rainbow of colours that has popped up. ‘We donât know who it is. And she added that she’s not even that keen for police to get to the bottom of the affair. The knitter even has a website , a Facebook page and a MySpace , under the name of ‘Salty Knits’, where they describe themselves as ‘Knitters that got sick of knitting kitten mittens.’
