Crochet Dragon Plush With Posable Tail and Wings, 28 cm Handmade

This crochet dragon plush is a handmade fantasy creature with folded wings, a ridged back and a long tail that holds a curve. It is worked in two colours you pick, from the body shade down to the belly and the inner wing panels. Collectors buy it for a shelf, and older children buy it because the neck and tail can be posed.

How your crochet dragon plush is made

Nothing is cut from a sheet or glued. Every piece is crocheted by hand in our small Hanoi studio, one at a time, after the order comes in. You can see the rest of our stuffed crochet animals if you want a matching piece.

1. Choose. Tell us your two colours and whether you want safety eyes or an embroidered face.
2. Make. Body, wings, horns and tail are worked separately, stuffed firmly and sewn on by hand.
3. Check and post. We send you a photograph of the finished dragon before it is packed.

Why the two-colour body works

Cotton holds a stitch edge better than fluffy yarn, so the ridges down the spine stay sharp and the wing panels keep their shape instead of drooping. The contrast colour on the belly and the inner wings is crocheted in rather than sewn over the top, so there is no edge to lift or peel with handling.

The crochet dragon plush sits back on its hind legs with the tail curled round as a third point of balance, so it stands on a flat shelf without a stand. The wings fold in against the body for posting and open again once it is unpacked. Most people keep theirs on a desk, a bookcase or a games shelf.

Each dragon takes 5-10 working days to crochet before it is posted. Every parcel is tracked, and you can follow it on our order tracking page.

Care

Hand wash your crochet dragon plush in cool water with a mild soap, press the water out with a towel, reshape the wings while damp and air dry away from direct sunlight. Keep the wire parts straight while it dries. There is more in our amigurumi care guide.

Questions people ask

Is the crochet dragon plush safe for a baby?

Not in this form, because of the wire. We will happily make it without wire and with an embroidered face at no extra cost.

Can I ask for colours that are not shown?

Yes. Send us the two shades you want and we will tell you what we have in stock before we start.

How long until it reaches me?

Making takes 5-10 working days, then 7-15 days to the USA and 10-20 days to most of Europe. Our shipping information has the full list.

Does the tail really stay where I put it?

Yes, within reason. The wire holds a gentle curve, but it is not meant to be bent back and forth every day.
