The Cloud Dragon features a low-sew amigurumi dragon pattern in the “sploot” position! It’s an adorable stuffed dragon that is relatively fast and easy to work up, and almost completely no-sew except to attach the wings to the body.
Here’s a look at the Cloud Dragon’s pattern preview~
Recommended Yarn
The pattern is designed using super bulky weight 6 chenille velvet yarn and a large 5mm hook, making this dragon work up quickly while creating a plush, soft result. I used chenille velvet yarns like Honey Bunny and Baby Snuggle yarn. Another great option for this pattern is Posh Twist yarn from Lion Brand Yarn, using a 5mm hook as well.
Uses
This splooting dragon is huggable, darling, and will surely be loved by those who adore fantasy creatures! Make it as a birthday gift, Christmas holiday present, or hot sellers for craft fairs and markets.
Adoption Certificate
Want to make your dragon doll the *perfect* gift? Add a cute adoption certificate along with it! I’m sure your recipient will absolutely adore this detail. The dragon-themed adoption certificate is available as a free printable! If you’d like to crochet some free dragon patterns with it, check out Daiyu the Dragon and Pocket Dragon.
The Sploot Series
The Cloud Dragon is part of Sweet Softies’ Sploot Series, where the animal doll lays with its belly flat on the floor and limbs outstretched. It’s a whimsically cute “superman” pose that makes these amigurumi perfect desk buddies!
