Now for the part of the scarf that I am not experiences at.
On the blue side embroider "I Like Warm Hugs" and add snowflakes around it. When I embroidered it I tried to keep all the yarn on one side so the back still looks plain blue.


What a cute scarf! It looks so fun and goes perfectly with my other Olaf accessories.


But, I created 2 types of Olaf scarves. Soon I will have the second pattern posted.

Little Red Riding Hood Flip Doll Pattern

I think this flip doll pattern is a little simpler than my Anna/Elsa doll mainly because there aren't color changed throughout the dolls dress. But you do have to make two faces on one of the head to be both the grandmother and the wolf.


Materials

Yarn in Skin color, red, brown, grey, white and light blue
Embroidery Thread in Red
Eyes- 3 sets
Crochet Hook- D:3.25mm
Needle for yarn sewing
Stitch Marker

Since this pattern is basically another pattern with just color changes, click here to see the pattern and next I'll make note of the color changes so read my whole adaptation before starting your doll.

Body

The first side I started with was the red riding hood side:


Make the head in skin color: Rounds 1-15
Then change to red for the shirt: Rounds 16-20
Change to light blue for the start of the Grandma/Wolf side: Rounds 21-26
Now it gets a little complicated as we make one side of the head mostly grey for the wolf but keep the other side skin color for the grandmother. So I'll write out the directions and color changes:
Grey(G), Skin(S)
Round 27: (G) sc in first sc, (S) sc in same st, *sc in next sc, 2sc in next sc,* (2 times), (G) sc in next sc, (S) *2sc in next sc, sc in next sc* (3 times) (18 sc)
Round 28: (G) 2 sc in first sc, (S) *sc in next 2 sc, 2sc in next sc* (2 times), (G) sc in next 2 sc, (S) *2sc in next sc, sc in next 2 sc* (3 times) (12 sc)
Round 29: (G) 2 sc in first sc, sc in next sc, (S) sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc, sc in next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc, (G) sc in next 3 sc, (S) *2 sc in next sc, sc in next 3 sc* repeat (3 times) (30 sc)
Round 30: (G) 2 sc in first sc, sc in next 2 sc, (S) sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc, sc in next 4 sc, 2 sc in next sc, (G) sc in next 4 sc, (S) *2 sc in next sc, sc in next 4 sc* repeat (3 times) (36 sc)
Round 31-32: (G) sc in first 4 sc, (S) sc in next 10 sc, (G) sc in next 4 sc, (S) sc in next 18 sc (36 sc)
Round 33: (G) sc in first 5 sc, (S) sc in next 8 sc, (G) sc in next 5 sc, (S) sc in next 18 sc (36 sc)
Round 34: (G) sc in first 6 sc, (S) sc in next 6 sc, (G) sc in next 6 sc, (S) sc in next 18 sc (36 sc)
Round 35: (G)st2tog, 1 sc in next 4 sc, st2tog, (S) sc in next 3 sc, (G) sc in next sc, st2tog, sc in next 4 sc, (S) *st2tog, sc in next 4 sc* repeat (3 times) (30 sc)
Round 36: (G) *st2tog, sc in next 3 sc* repeat (3 times) (S) *st2tog, sc in next 3 sc* repeat (3 times) (24 sc)
