Baby Dragon Revisit (Bird-like Dragon and Harness)

Ok, so since my last post I have had a request for my dad to make him a bird-like dragon with a harness, so I though I'd tell you how I did that.

Bird Dragon:
1. You only have to make the back legs (it is resembling a bird after all).
2. a. using a long piece of yarn and needle
    b. insert into the base of the tail at the top
    c. push though till you reach the chin (under the ears)
    d. loop around a stitch (make sure its going to face the way you want it)
    e. skip a row and insert back into body
    f. push through till you reach the point where you entered
    g. take off the needle and pull ends tight
    h. tie securely and weave in ends
3. The wing need to be brought forward one row (roughly the row you would put the front legs, just higher).
4. The back legs, should be placed at an angle, lower on the body (anchor them tightly so it can stand up).

All done!!!

Harness:

Because these little guys never come out quite the same this is going to be a little vague. But this will work for either type of dragon. (If you have any questions please comment)

1. Pick a color and find your F hook.

2. Leaving a tail chain until you have a loop that fits around the neck of your dragon, leave tail fasten off.

3. Do the same for just behind the wings.

4. Lay both side over their respective places, and half knot the alternating tails of each chain (right of neck to left of body and vice-versa) then take two tail in each hand and half knot again. 

5. Pull tight, and weave ends into harness.

Technically you are done, but there is one more thing you can do (It's helpful if you want to hang it from something).

6. Leave tail chain length that stretches from back to front of the top of the harness, leave tail.

7. Secure to both end and weave in ends.
