These [plush knit dragon eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baked-goods-plushies) by [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-cookie-cutters) shop owner "FantasticGift" are a tribute to Game of Thrones season one when Daenerys' full-grown dragons were [little eggs waiting to hatch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dinosaur-toys). "FantasticGifts" came up with the pattern for these plush dragon eggs using a crochet knitting style. The stitch used is called a crocodile stitch that lends itself beautifully to the medieval look of these oval-shaped dragon eggs. Each stitch forms a scale-like design that fits perfectly into the dragon theme of these eggs. "FantasticGifts" recommends using a black, dark green or beige wool color to replicate the dragon egg colors from the show. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Crochet Knitting:** Crochet knitting techniques can be leveraged to create unique and visually appealing designs, opening up opportunities for handmade crafts and customized products. - **Fantasy Tribute Products:** Creating products that pay homage to popular fantasy shows or movies, like Game of Thrones, can attract a dedicated fanbase and tap into the demand for collectibles. - **Medieval-inspired Designs:** Incorporating medieval aesthetics into modern designs, such as scale-like patterns, can resonate with consumers looking for nostalgic or unique products. ### Where This Applies - **Handmade Crafts:** The handmade crafts industry can explore the use of crochet knitting techniques to create intricate and customized products, appealing to consumers looking for unique items. - **Collectibles:** The collectibles industry can capitalize on the popularity of fantasy shows and create tribute products, like plush dragon eggs, to cater to avid fans and collectors. - **Nostalgic Merchandise:** The merchandise industry can tap into the demand for medieval-inspired designs and create nostalgic products that evoke a sense of fantasy and adventure. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Educational Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slumberkins.md) - [RPG-Inspired Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kobold-plushies.md) - [Fantasy-Inspired Soap Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-squatch-1.md) - [Show-Inspired Coloring Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-the-dragon-1.md) - [Mixed Material Home Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resin-dragon-egg-ornament.md) - [Dragon-Themed Bath Bombs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/how-to-train-your-dragon-x-lush.md) - [Fantasy-Series Inspired Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diff-eyewear.md) - [Distinctive Dragon-Themed Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/distinctive-dragonthemed-books-dragonborn-features-illustrative-end-pages-a.md) - [Fantasy Series-Inspired Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dragon-flame-pizza.md)
