This baby dragon is downright darling! He’d probably also make a really sweet baby dinosaur with a minimal adjustment for my very favourite three – year old boy, who happens to take an entire backpack of toy dinosaurs everywhere he goes! Thank you very kindly for this beautiful pattern!
Thank you, Raven! 🙂
