    Default Amigurumi Dragon for my Granddaughter

    This is from my Pica Pau book by Yan Shenkel. My DIL picked it out. I love how (s)he stands on her own.

    Great "pet" for your granddaughter. I have a friend who makes animals for her young relatives. Beautiful and well done.

    Thank you. Their house burned due to a downed electric wire yesterday and all her clothes and toys burned. Everyone is safe and the house is insured, thank the Lord! So this dragon will get to her at just the right time.

    I am so glad to hear everyone is safe. Belonging can be replaced. New memories can be made. This little dragon will be the first of many of those new memories. I am sure your GD will love it.

    That's adorable! Omg, how awful about the house.

    SBG, I'm toying with the idea of learning how to crochet because I want to make some spindle thingys for my FW's. I watched a couple of Youtube videos and may just do it. I have all my Mom's supplies. I knit but have never crocheted.

    Good luck to your family. So glad nobody was hurt.

    So cute! So sorry about the house but in what I call the "best possible bad news" everyone is safe.

    I've been around two houses that exploded. ( natural gas) House fires do so much damage. But hey one day I got to drive the tanker truck to the fire. Not bad for a guy who isn't even a volunteer fire fighter.

    She'll love the new critter
