Crochet Selene the Skeletal Dragon Pattern

Crochet Selene the Skeletal Dragon Pattern (Gothic Amigurumi Dragon | 46 cm Long | Advanced Wire Work)

Selene is a 46 cm skeletal dragon wreathed in dark roses and sacred symbols, with lace-work wings, a ribbed skeletal body, and 20 mm eyes that make her look like she has been watching over something important for a very long time. She is the kind of finished piece that gets its own shelf and makes every visitor to your home stop and ask what she is made of. This is the advanced pattern for makers who want a project that genuinely challenges them and produces a result unlike anything else in their collection.

What's Included:

• Detailed technique descriptions included to guide you through basic and specialized techniques
• Alternative crocheted eye options included alongside the 20 mm safety eye version
• Complete wire work instructions for poseable wings, legs, tail, and ribs
• A clean, gothic finish that reads boutique, not craft project

What You'll Need:

• Sport weight (Size 2) cotton/acrylic mix yarn in main body color (approx. 100 g) plus teal, black, and purple accents
• 2.0 mm crochet hook
• 20 mm safety eyes (or use included crocheted eye instructions)

• Dark roses and sacred symbols add rich conceptual depth beyond a standard dragon design
• Sport weight cotton/acrylic mix creates a crisp, firm structure that holds detailed shaping cleanly
• Includes crocheted eye alternative so you can complete the look without hunting for 20 mm safety eyes
• Exceptionally well-crafted instructions praised by buyers for incredible clarity and design organization

Perfect For:

Advanced amigurumi makers ready for a complex wire-armature character build, gothic and dark aesthetic collectors, makers who want a finished piece that earns its own dedicated display space, and gift-givers who want to hand over something genuinely extraordinary and completely one of a kind.
