here be dragon giveaway!

i think it's time for another amigurumi giveaway, don't you?! and of course nothing spreads the valentine-y message of love and friendship more effusively than a small green friendly dragon, does it?!


to my fellow crocheters, i should mention that the pattern for this little guy came from simple arts planet on dawanda.com and is without doubt the clearest, most thorough, and best illustrated ami pattern i've ever used!


for those of you who'd prefer to acquire your dragons fully assembled, this little guy is keen to travel! just leave your very best dragon-name suggestion as a comment on this post. enter as many times as you like before midnight on valentine's day (that's next monday, february 14th); i'll draw & announce a random winner the following morning.

good luck, dragon-loving darlings!
