The Norwegian Ridgeback “resembles the Hungarian Horntail, except for the black ridges on its back, the browner texture in its scales, and its less hostile attitude. It has venomous fangs, and its food of choice is large mammals, including water mammals, which is unusual for a dragon. Its eggs are black, and young Ridgebacks develop the ability to shoot flame earlier than any other breeds (around one to three months). Female Ridgebacks are generally more ferocious than the males.”

I'm still new enough to knitting that when I read a pattern I have a very difficult time envisioning how it actually works. With the Ridgeback, I was really worried I wasn't going to be able to do the special stitches without extra help from the designer, but I had already had positive interactions with her, so I trusted it would all come together. Turns out, if you pre-read, and then-reread the steps, the stitches just work, they come together, and low-and-behold, the hat looks like the main image of the pattern. I find it fascinating someone can pull these types of visions together, and as someone who very much cannot, I appreciate and am grateful for Jenny's designs. <3
