ABOUT THE DESIGN
Dragon Lore is a unique knitwear piece that will instantly transform you into a mythological being. Heavily textured, 3D dragon scales look complex, but not difficult to create (no short rows!). Wear it as a shawl, or convert it into an over the shoulder piece. Leather tassels with renaissance style motifs add another texture to this garment.

My pattern is 11 pages long and includes written instructions, a chart, photo tutorials and video tutorials online.
