My Bearded Dragon Amigurumi that I designed and built myself! *proud face*

Since I learned how to crochet I have been wanting to make a bearded dragon but I needed to practice first.Â Its been 3 months and here is my Dragon!

Clecko was a great help in creating my favorite stuffed toy

This is where she said "use this wool Momma"

and she jumped on top and said Look how well it matches my awesome lizard body (just kidding. Actually i put her on top to see how it matched her body.. snapped a pic and then she slipped off the paper and looked at me in that top pic there.. so I snapped that one as well lol)

She sat there like a good little beardie while I shaped the body of the dragon by eyeball (not using a recipe or having to count stitches was So Much Fun! lol)

She was encouraging and said "the legs are looking great!"

and then when it was finished Clecko didnt seem at all interested in the new dragon.Â She would rather just stare at me because she loooooooooooooves me!!

I plopped her on top of him and she was like "wtf" I said, hey look.. the legs bend! She didnt care.

I said "go play with your new dragon" and she was like "um.. I dont think so" "I raise my head in snobbery at that thing! Get it away from me!"

She was all happy to play with the thing while it was in pieces.. but as soon as it resembled another dragon she's not interested. That makes sense because dragons don't like each other lol. So. all that tells me is that.. The amigurumi dragon is a success!!Â and it passed the dragon test haha

Here is a picture of his belly so you can see the beard part

I could have done a continuous loop stitch on the bottom side of the head but I wanted the beard to be a different color so I single stitch looped and cut off each and every one of those.. to the tune of 4 episodes of the vampire diaries lol.Â Making cute little animals is very time consuming

There is a close up of.. wow. this little guy doesnt even haveÂ a name yet. I'll get back to you on that. Here is a close up of his good side hahaha.

Â

All in all I am pretty pleased with the end result. Other than messing up on the tail part I think he's stitched together pretty decent. I'll be sure to be making more and the more I make the better they are going to look. Eventually I may even be able to write down the recipe so then I have my own first real design of a stuffed crochet toy! There are absolutely Zero patterns available for bearded dragons at this point.. Ive searched!! lol

Thanks for reading =)
