Assembly of Crochet Bagon
The back of Bagon’s body is more rounded. Attach snout to front of head. For “hair” (helmet?) Attach two side pieces fist –originating from top of snout and ending at back of head. Attach center ‘hair’ piece.
Attach the yellow belly to the bottom centre of the body. Attach the feet to the legs and then the legs to the body. Note- Bagon will NOT easily stand up on its own if legs are placed as shown in pictures- if you don’t want him to do always have balance or lean on something to stand upright you could attach his legs in a ‘sitting’ position. Attach arms above legs.
Finally- the last details (eyes, jaw, teeth and ears (?)) were added by needle felting onto the appropriate places. Alternatively one could cut out felt pieces and glue on accordingly.
