To crochet this Dragon El’Ejin, you will need:

• Embroidery floss in Main Color, skein separated (stripped) into individual strands. (I use Kirov Yarn Mills Mouline for embroidery or DMC brand cotton embroidery floss). May be substituted with thin sewing thread. The thinner the thread, the smaller the dragon will turn out.
• Embroidery floss in an additional color for the wings, scales, and tail.
• A length of black sewing thread for the eyebrows and nostrils.
• A length of white sewing thread for the white of the eye.
• Rip-resistant thread for cinching. (I used sturdy sewing thread held double.)
• Crochet hook 0.5 mm [US Steel Crochet Hook Size 18].
• Glass toy eyes, diameter 2 mm [0.01 in]. I ordered mine from AliExpress. If eyes in this size are not available, you can make your own from polymer clay, and cover them with a glossy multiple-layer enamel finish, or use seed beads.)
• Glue gel, “Moment” brand super glue.
• Thin beading needle, diameter 0.45 mm [0.02 in].
• Sharp nail scissors.
• Stuffing (polyester fiberfil).
• A toothpick or broken felting needle – used to insert stuffing.
• For blushing – oil pastel and toothpick.
