TOOTHLESS

This is another character that I have been thinking about making but, like most, have not until a friend or co-worker requests that I make it for someone.  Toothless is an interesting character from the popular “How to Train You Dragon” movie franchise.  Most of the pieces are from dragons that I have made in the past, which made making Toothless much easier than others.  This pattern can be made with Toothless’ mouth open or closed.  If you want his mouth closed, make TOP OF HEAD and BOTTOM OF HEAD and sew together leaving 10 sc of each unworked for the NECK opening.
