A dragon curve is the shape produced by folding a long strip of paper many times and then opening it out so that each fold becomes a right angle. Many of the interesting features of such curves are explained in these three books. This afghan contains dragons of different sizes. Each one is made from two strands of yarn - a main colour to distinguish the dragons from one another and a more subtle tone which depends on the dragon's size. Click here to see a close-up of part of the pattern. In this version, the main colours are replaced by red and three shades of grey. The shapes of the four colours are the same but pointing in different directions. Click on either of these pictures to see larger versions. We have more creations based on dragon curves here. There is also a scarf based on this design. Information booklets for the afghans Back to the main afghan page
