Extraordinary Dragon Crochet Patterns for Home Decor | 7 Patterns
Dragons have been the object of mystery and legend for centuries. Depending on who you ask, they may be terrifying monsters or benevolent guardians. Either way, people are intrigued by these magical creatures. So it’s no surprise that dragon amigurumi patterns are a favorite around here! But if you love dragons, perhaps you’d like to incorporate them in your home decor, too! Whether they’re part of a dragon decor scheme or a larger fantasy theme, these dragon crochet patterns for home decor will make your home more cozy and comfortable, while adding a touch of handmade magic.
These dragon home decor patterns range from regal to playful, from literal to subtle. Sometimes you’ll add a 3-D dragon (or parts of one) to your piece.

I’ve collected these dragon crochet patterns for home decor with the permission of the designers and by using images they have authorized me to use. These patterns are all designed by REAL PEOPLE, no artificial intelligence involved, and will help you create the art that inspires you.

Dragon Claw Pillow
by Hooked by Kati
This beautiful and playful pillow pattern pairs well with the dragon eye pillow above. The pillow base uses the same stitch pattern of alternating sc, dc clusters, sometimes known as the Suzette stitch. Then, you’ll crochet the claws in the round, using amigurumi techniques such as short rounds to create the perfect shape. Like its companion, this free pillow pattern works up into an 18 x 18 inch pillow.

Dragon Eye Towel Topper
by Nana’s Crafty Home
Why stop at the living room? Grab this free pattern and extend your fantasy home decor scheme into the kitchen as well with this magical crochet towel holder! If the dragon’s eye on this dish towel holder looks familiar, that’s because it was inspired by the dragon eye pillow above. This smaller version of the dragon eye hides a towel ring, where you can slip a kitchen towel through. It’s easy to remove and change when you need to!

Ice Dragon Baby Blanket
by Crafting Happiness
This warm and cuddly crochet blanket also works as nursery decor or a play mat. The paid pattern is full of interesting shapes and textures for little hands to manipulate. If you use safety eyes, it’s better to use it more for decoration or a photo prop. Alternatively, skip the safety eyes altogether and embroider the eyes instead. You can check out these 10 Tips for “Kid-Proof” Amigurumi for more information on safety.

Dragon Scales Baby Blanket
by Make it Crochet
This richly-textured blanket doesn’t scream “dragon” but would be a good complement to other fantasy crochet patterns or dragon-themed decor, especially if you make them in coordinating colors. It combines both standard and Tunisian crochet techniques to create the “scales” in a continuous mitered square repeat. Don’t have a Tunisian hook? No worries. The repeats are short enough that you don’t need one for this free pattern.

Dragon Easter Basket
by Briana K Designs
Definitely more cute than fierce, the body of this sweet little dragon is an Easter basket. Its head, legs, and spiky tail are created using amigurumi techniques and sewn to the basket. A plastic canvas lining gives the basket extra structure. This would also be perfect in a kid’s room as a storage basket, where it can guard their treasures.
