This snake pattern is easy to follow. It works with mostly chenille yarn. this pattern is for beginners. The size of the snake is customizable. I really had fun making this. And I hope you do to!

--Snake Lore-- (I am going to make Ishvazh and Etharkenari soon...)
Some of the local snakes don't know why this snake is lonely and sad all the time. they don't really know anything about him. the ones that do know a thing or two about him, are merchants and traders. They say his name is Azhphunar. He once in a while comes to visit the traders at the Starscale market to buy food and supplies. He only goes to one shop: Ishvazh's gems. Azhphunar is great friends with Ishvazh. They grew up together, and hunted together. He is the only family Azhphunar has left. His father died while trying to fight a Greedborne for money. Spiritborne stand no chance against them. His mother was poisoned by a Luckborne that was jealous of her. And his sister, Etharkenari is lost and gone.
"I wonder how Etharkenari is doing after all these years Ishvazh." Ishvazh muttered. "huh you really think that she is alive after all these years Azh." "Yes I do, I have been trying to find her for years now. And I have information on where she is and what she is." Ishvazh was busy hammering a jewel into a necklace. He dropped the pair of tweezers that was in his mouth. "Hmm, oh really. You found her. what is she, a dead body." Ishvazh laughed and curled his tail around a box. He opened it and put the necklace in it. "Ishvazh really. This is serious. I have found her while I was talking to Xutraai. She said that Etharkenari was orphaned at Sweetbone orphanage. Then Valkarthra herself slithered into there and apparently took her to be her student. Xutraai said that Valkarthra said somthing about. You come from a long line of Important Spiritbornes. And she is now the princess of the Chazmaks. She is getting married to commander Tvarn' Shavu Tomorrow." Ishvazh closed the box and turned to Azhphunar. "There is no way SHE is the princess, how come I haven't learned of that. Oh wait Xutraai told you. That slimy sea serpent is full of lies." "But it is true, I know that because I saw Uthraraz slithering next to her. And she had a wedding veil on her head. A large crowd was bowing while they passed." " Hrmph she could be a princess. But wait just a second. You could have seen a different Spiritborne there. Uthraraz usually marches noble Chazmak brides down the city. " Azhphunar was saddened by this comment." Your right, Xutraai is a liar. And that could have been Ayiri, she is a noble Spiritborne too." "Good now you believe me. Get to work. I need more Stjormunite from that box over there. And hand me the metal shaper." Azhphunar observed Ishvazh work for a second then slithered to the box. He thought. Xutraai may be telling the truth, I did see Uthraraz there. And I know that Ayiri cant be getting married. She is too young. She also has slightly purple scales. But I remember that Etharkenari has teal scales. I know what I saw. And that was Etharkenari. Sajar must have found her in the suburbs of Zakaarinva." " What are you doing Azh, get me the Stjormunite and the shaper. Azhphunar gave them to him. He forged another necklace and handed it to Azhphunar. "Bring this to the palace. This is for Cuytarvana, one of the guards. No distractions and go home after this." Azhphunar nodded and swiftly left.
Whithin a hour he arrived at the palace of Uthraraz. He knew Cuytarvana. She was a special friend of Ishvazh. He found Cuytarvana and told her that this was from Ishvazh. Cuytarvana smiled and put the necklace on. If I am here, then I can probably find Etharkenari. Azhphunar thought. "Hey excuse me Cuytarvana. Have you heard of a Spiritborne named Etharkenari. "Oh yes she is the princess. How come you haven't heard about her." "Well I am from the Suburbs and I guess news doesn't spread quickly." "Okay, well she is in this palace, I will grant you entrance because I know I can trust you. Here take this, and show it to any guards that question you." Cuytarvana gave Azhphunar a small spear trinket that had the Chazmak symbol on its spearhead. "You can keep it if you need to see Etharkenari again or Uthraraz." Azhphunar grabbed the trinket and said thank you, and slithered up to the palace.
The palace was very ornate. It had stained glass windows on the walls of all the different types of Chazmaks. The ceiling had a sculpture of a Blackfang biting a Hearthborne. Azhphunar lowered his head and slithered on. He felt slightly scared of this. He arrived at the throne room door. There were two guards standing there. They asked Azhphunar for the trinket. They inspected it and gave it back to him. They opened the golden doors.
The room was gilded and bright. The ceiling there was a starry sky with a sculpture of a Hearthborne stabbing a Blackfang. Azhphunar was confused of the history behind this. He looked at his reflection on the quartz tiles his eyes lit up as he slithered to Uthraraz. She was a brown Luckborne with regal jewelry. Her scales had a rattlesnake pattern. To her right was Valkarthra sitting on a platform. Her heart on her head shone bright pink. It gave a welcoming vibe to Azhphunar. To her left was Etharkenari. Azhphunar was amazed by how much she grew. Etharkenari was also joyful. She smiled and leapt out of her platform. Uthraraz, and Valkarthra smiled. Azhphunar, and Etharkenari hugged each other and danced joyfully. Etharkenari's jewelry jingled as she danced. Azhphunar dropped the trinket as he danced. Both siblings were very joyous to see each other.
"I am so glad I found you, my sister, How are you doing?" Etharkenari could not speak. She was muted by a disability That she developed a year ago. "Sister? Speak to me." Uthraraz looked up. "She can not speak anymore. She has a disability." Etharkenari stopped smiling but continued to dance. She was aware of everything that was going on. She could hear the tiniest noises. But she could tell no one. Azhphunar let a tear fall from his face. It told a story of sadness and joy. "Oh how I longed to hear your voice, but at least I have found you." Etharkenari stopped spinning and slithered over to her platform and grabbed a piece of paper, and a quill. She wrote: "I missed your voice to, I am really sad that this happened. But I have always hoped for you to find me and you have. Lets now go outside and announce to all that I have found my brother. You can now be my voice, and my servant won't have to be. " Etharkenari led Azhphunar to the balcony and nodded at him. Azhphunar announced in a loud voice. "Your prince has returned, to welcome his sister." The crowd outside cheered and hissed and stomped their tails. Suddenly an arrow shot out of the air and hit Etharkenari. Everyone screamed and muttered. Azhphunar was shocked and frightened. He twisted his body around Etharkenari and tried to get a look at who shot her. He only saw a dark purple tail slide off the roofs of the houses. It came back , and a Maroon Serpent with a quiver and a bow yelled. "Anka Uratz Vrbat" (It is time for war.) Several snakes shot at Azhphunar but he dodged them. He Jumped inside the Palace. He looked outside and saw houses burning and Chazmaks Screaming. " There is a war about to happen." Valkarthra Slithered quickly to Etharkenari frantically trying to keep her alive. She pulled out the arrow from her side, and chanted a spell that made Etharkenari unconscious, and not dead. "Hide Azhphunar, leave the palace. And try to warn as many Chazmaks as you can about this." Azhphunar obeyed and slithered out of the palace. Explosions were happening everywhere. He ran to an alley. And covered himself with a broken barrel. He sobbed and said. "I just met my sister after twenty years, I met her for only a few minutes. And now she Is dead. What will I do..."
