I hemmed and hawed about how to offer this pattern for a while and I finally decided that the blog is where it's at ;)
 |
| Beaded "dragon scales" (crocodile stitch) size 5 thread |
 |
| Khaleesi Beaded Dragon Scale barefoot sandal in size 3 thread |
Materials:
size 3/5/10 crochet thread in color choice (avoid metallics as they can be scratchy)
size 0 steel crochet hook
seed beads in color choice (I like E beads because they are easier to thread)
Abbreviations:
ch : chain
sl st : slip stitch
dc : double crochet
Notes:
All terms American. If pattern reads: "sc2, sc2tog, 2sc", it would be read: "single crochet in next two stitches, single crochet 2 stitches together (decrease), 2 single crochet in the next stitch". repeat between ** Be sure to read through any pattern before beginning. You may do whatever you like with your completed Khaleesi sandals, run a marathon, lounge around the pool, take up belly/exotic dancing, marry your true love in them in your dream beach wedding, or even sell them! I do ask that you do not represent my pattern as your own, reproduce or distribute my pattern in any fashion; sharing a link to my blog is appreciated! :) If you have any questions please message me , I would be happy to help you!
