Some Dragon Egg Bags and a Chevron Pillow Cover

I am still making dragon egg bags !!

These bags are made with a dc all around and then a 5dc cluster for a scale, with a skip, slip, skip in between each scale in the back loop only on top of that dc round. Then repeated those two rounds to however big you want the bag Ive been making then the same amount of rows as there are scales around and they seem to be even enough.Â Each scale requires 4 stitches so I just built the starting circle to the amt of stitches i wanted the bag to be.Â The big bag is using 96 stitches (24 scales) around.Â then there is a 16 scale bag, a 14 scale bag, two 12 scale bags and a baby bag that has only 6 scales around.

For the last two rows of the bag I usedÂ dc x 3, chain x2 and repeat around. then on the next row slapped a 5dc cluster on the 2ch space from the row below to make the top rim of the bag.

A chain (however long you want your string) with a sc back down makes the draw string for the bag. that gets woven in between the last two rows through the holes that the 2chain space makes

Â

After I got comfortable making those dragon bags, I decided to try the chevron stitch for the first time.

Â

and i made a pillow case :)Â I'll be needing to practice this stitch :)
