The Elder Dragon – Mosaic Crochet Pattern (PDF)

Digital crochet pattern PDF. No finished item or physical product is included.

An ancient drake perches in sovereign stillness atop the stone battlements of a forgotten mountain citadel. Its mighty barbed wings flare wide against the nocturnal sky, every serrated horn and overlapping belly plate carved with dramatic, woodcut linocut precision.

The entire legendary scene is encased within an elegant Gothic arched frame and crisp architectural border rules, transforming a fierce fantasy icon into a breathtaking heirloom tapestry fit for a castle hall or reading nook.
