Amigurami Dragonfly

Materials:
Worsted weight yarn in bright green, 50 yards or more. I used Red Heart Hokey Pokey in Spearmint.
Worsted weight yarn in white, 50 yards or more
Worsted weight yarn in black, 20 yards or more
Size D crochet hook
Stuffing
1 Stitch marker
Yarn needle

Abbreviations:
st - stitch
sc - single crochet
m2 - make 2 (stitch 2 sc in 1 st)
dec - decrease (sc two together)
BO - bind off

Notes:
When you crochet in an amigurami style, you: a) work in the round without; don't slip st at the end of the row and use a chain to act as your first sc; just keep using a single chain. b) st into the front of the previous row. You don't want the lined look that sometimes accompanies crocheted pieces.
