Very cure and cool design. I admire the effort that must have been put into completing this and still give it a nice level of detail (with the brows, horns, nostrils, and side-fins).Β

So.... they DO make fireproof yarn after all. This is really cool. Er, hot? Warm?

I'm impressed with the form you were able to get, I'm trying to create knitted dragons and I know getting the right shape can be difficult!

Oh so you have visitation rights x'D Glad he isn't completely lost to you I suppose and I am sure you earned a smile from your child as well so you really made the most of it
Out of curiousity did you actually make the pattern yourself ?

Yes I did. I even sell the pattern (not the dragon) on Etsy so other people can make it too.

I just really can't fathom it though to be able to figure something like that out >.<
It's really nice of you to share them like that, it would be nice if you made a few to sell as whole every now and then too for thoose of us that can't handle it haha x'D though saying that is a little selfish on my part because i don't even have the funds lol
Well thanks for talking to me, i am sure i took up enough of your time but it was really nice n. n

Nah, people would never pay what it is worth. It took me 2 weeks of constantly working on it.
It's been nice chatting with you

how much would it cost anyway
same, i somewhat treasured it

I wouldn't ever consider making a Cosmo for less than $200. It's hours of my life working on it. We are talking about 80 + hours. That's why I offered the pattern instead. I made videos on youtube teaching how to crochet. They show pretty much all you would need to know to make any of my patterns.

that dosen't sound so so bad a price considering how some can be with their plushes actually, it may be good to keep it an option to people? this or do it yourself at this price but it is your life and dedication so it's fair not to make it a choice
but if you were to add a little bonus to what they are paying for like choice of the colours and maybe even a name for there dragon knitted into the dragon for free if its 5 characters long costing extra for more letters, little adds like that can ease the ''its too expensive'' I am just saying as an overview sort of thing, i know its not a garentee and it's just my opinion in all honesty
Umm do you have left handed techniques? i only can do the line haha and as myself personally i don't have so much confidence to do that much i guess, i have a feeling it wouldn't come out quite right

Nah, I am burnt out on crochet. I have been for a couple years now. It's time to move on to other art.
Have you ever seen how many stitches a letter takes up? (See the Doctor Who Bag if you are curious) Switching colors is very time consuming.
Sorry, I don't have any techniques for you. With crochet, I'm pretty sure everything is the same except you hold the hook in the opposite hand and instead of going right to left, you work left to right. I could be wrong.

Hnn, i burn myself out trying to attempt many things
actually i more just meant base colours say cosmos being blue or such and i gues i am more thing like thread writing rather then that chunky spine tunnel or well a nice print tag but it dosen't really matter what i meant
shame i just got a look it up i suppose its just confusing as you kind of need to thing backwards but foreward....

Ah I see what you meant. That would be embroidery. I really don't have the patience for that craft. I still have an embroidered pikachu I started 2 years ago I haven't finished lol.

well not that intense like half it?
um what were you embrioding onto it anyway? can i see what you done?
π: 0 β©: 1
Just embroidery cloth. I don't have any pics. I usually take pics when I'm done. Currently it is in a closet somewhere. Eventually I will get back to it.
