Read this book as a child in the 90's. All I can remember is there are old ladies who knit socks or stockings. They hide eggs from a dragon and the dragon ends up choking on the socks. It has very colorful bright illustrations.

Taylor, is this a picture book or children's novel?

children's picture book

You mentioned the illustrations are very colorful and bright. Are they simple or detailed, realistic or cartoon-like? Do they remind you of a similar illustrator or picture book author?
