The Dragon Tail Blanket and Buddy Crochet pattern were inspired by my son and his love of dragons. <3 It includes both the blanket and dragon buddy. The blanket can be made from a toddler/preschool size all the way up to an adult by adding extra rows and spikes. It also turns into a backpack with a pouch for the dragon buddy!!!!
