Notes
This pattern is written in US terminology.
This pattern is a modification of the Jade the Dragon Snuggler Pattern. You will need that pattern in order to proceed.
This pattern is worked in continuous rounds unless otherwise stated.
Each part starts with a magic ring unless otherwise stated, but you can use the ch2 starting method if you prefer. You can also use regular acrylic yarn to make your magic ring if you have trouble with the chenille yarn. To ensure the magic ring is secure, I like to crochet several stitches in round 2 over the tail.
I highly recommend using a stitch marker to keep track of the first stitch of each round
When working into a chain, I like to go in the back humps of the chain rather than the side. It makes the edges look neater.
() at the end of a round/row indicate the stitch count for that round/row
This pattern is mostly low sew, but you can sew the pieces on if you’d prefer.
Please if you have any questions or need clarification on any part, reach out to me and I will help! You can contact me at wolvyncreations@gmail.com or @wolvyncreations on Instagram
