A perfect gift for the dice goblin or dragon enthusiast in your life. These handmade artisanal bags are a practical substitute for traditional dragon skin, which has become virtually unobtainable in the modern day.

This pattern makes use of the crocodile stitch to create the dragon scale effect. You should comfortably know how to chain, crochet in the round, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, slip stitch, decrease, and crochet in the front post to do this pattern. As such, I would recommend this pattern for intermediate crocheters, but the pattern is written so that a very adventurous beginner should be able to follow along.

I highly recommend making this design with a 3.5 mm hook and DK weight yarn. If possible, I recommend using a self striping yarn or a yarn with reflective thread or other source of shimmer. I use Hobbii Universe XL for my pouches.
