DRAGONS
is a series of five counted cross stitch designs, each
featuring a central circular panel with four smaller corner
panels connected by an intricate border. The colors of
the dragons are taken from the sky and sun at different times
of the day, while the border colors link all five designs
together to form a series.

ERRATA:
Oct '02 - 1st printing, error in the floss list symbol:
+ 444 & 382
should read
+ 444 & 3820
NOTES - DR-002-01-1, symbol similarity. 0 & o, W & w:
0 445, yellow used in the dragon only
o 825 & 3842, blue used in the border and suns rays
W 444, yellow used in the dragon only
w 311 & 824, blue used in the border and suns rays
Color 351 is only used as a small amount in backstitching and could be substituted.
Nov '03 - Removed the recommended speciality floss DMC Art.273 Antique Gold as it is discontinued. Changed the pattern to recommend using two strands of 205C Kreinik Metallic Cord (a single ply cord) instead of taking 205C #4 Braid Kreinik Metallic and splitting it. Two strands of this cord are blended into the border. Instead of using two strands of 205C, a single strand of Access Commodities Bijoux #425 Pyrite can be substituted. The Bijoux is closer in tone (old gold) to the original DMC than the Kreinik but is harder to obtain.
