I started this project on a whim and was delighted to find three shades of Lion Brand Wool-Ease in my stash that were quite similar to the original. The gauge is a lot bigger so I had to pay attention and stop when I got to the right lengths. I improvised the tongue and I'm quite happy with it. There's an embroidered nose but it's kind of hard to see. For the eyes I used some buttons from my stash. Max thinks he looks Chinese. Here is the full out Elliot the Dragon! (In all his photoshopped glory)
