Competition entry No. 39 – Little Red Riding Hood

Hello. My name is Diana. I decided to take part in your competition because I recently knitted a hat for my daughter. I found a picture on the Internet, bought threads and knitted a similar one. I learned to knit at school. I went to a knitting club with my sister. Now I can make all sorts of little things. I don't have the patience for big things. I have two children and am currently on maternity leave. In the summer we relax with our grandmother, so we have a little time for creativity. I get inspiration from the Internet. I hope someone likes my work. Sincerely, Zhogal Diana.

Little Red Riding Hood

At first glance it may seem that crocheting a hat is very difficult, but it is not so. Of course, knitted hats look much closer to store-bought clothes, but this is their drawback. It may be a little more difficult to crochet a warm hat, but you have more room for imagination.

Crocheting hats can be divided into several parts:

  • Choosing the right model
  • Selection of hook and yarn
  • Taking measurements
  • The process of knitting a hat

Let's start with selecting a model. Do you need a warm hat for fall/winter or a light one for spring? Do you like pom-pom hats, berets or beanies? Based on this data, we look for the model we need:

  • Crochet beanie hat
  • Crochet beret
  • Hat with pompom

Taking measurements for crocheting a hat

  1. AB – depth of the cap, measured from the forehead to the neck (from the eyebrows to the beginning of hair growth).
  2. CD – cap height – measured from one ear to the other through the crown. This size needs to be divided in half.
  3. Head circumference (head circumference) - measured along the line of the forehead and the protruding part of the back of the head. This is your hat size (for adults from 54-62 cm).

In accordance with the measurements taken, you can start knitting a hat. But, if you have a model at hand, or you are knitting for yourself, then the easiest way is to try it on one more time and not bother taking measurements.

Now you need to choose the right yarn. For a winter hat, we recommend using wool blend yarn or acrylic. A hat usually only needs 1-2 skeins, so don’t skimp on yarn. It is better to take imported yarn, because... it is softer and does not make your head itch. If you are allergic to wool, then buy cashmere. 100% cashmere yarn is very expensive, so choose yarn that contains at least 50% cashmere.

If high-quality yarn in your stores is very expensive, then sew a lining from fleece for a winter crocheted hat or from knitwear for an autumn hat.

For a light spring crocheted hat, you can buy yarn with a cotton composition, at least 50% cotton and 50% acrylic will be enough. Choose the thickness of the yarn depending on the size of the hook.

How to choose the right hook for the yarn when crocheting hats

Take the thread and lightly twist it in half. The thickness of the twisted yarn should be equal to the thickness of your hook. It is best to start by knitting a small sample of 10*10 cm and see how the yarn behaves and whether the selected pattern is suitable for it. Sometimes you think you've found a really nice crochet hat, but your yarn just isn't right for it.

And finally, we want to say that the easiest way to crochet a hat is according to the pattern, but sometimes it’s enough to look at several dozen models to understand what exactly you want and start knitting. We have prepared a selection of crocheted hats from our readers to make it easier for you to decide. Knit for your health!

Little Red Riding Hood - knitted doll. Master class.

Little Red Riding Hood - knitted doll. Master class.

This doll with knitted clothes will be a wonderful friend for any girl.

Let's start with the head. We cast on the thread from which we will have two air loops, we knit 6 stitches into the first loop and start knitting in a circle, 2nd row: increase, 2 in each loop, we get 12 loops, 3rd row we make increases through one loop , we get 18, and so on in each row we must add 6 stitches evenly, we catch up to 36 stitches. Then we change the thread to the one from which the body will be and we knit without increments 36 stitches in each row, as many rows as necessary, if we want to have a girl with a long face, we need to knit a larger number of rows, and if she has a round face, then vice versa,

1.

then we begin to make decreases. First, we decrease through 4 stitches, we get 30 stitches in the row, then after 3 stitches - 24 stitches, and thus up to 18 stitches.
2.

The resulting head must be stuffed
3.

We stuff it with synthetic fluff; if it doesn’t work with your finger, then we help ourselves with a wooden stick.

4.

or with your finger, like this

then we knit several rows (an arbitrary number) without decreases, it will be more

6.

Now we’re making hangers. To prevent them from being sloping, you need to make two increments in each loop, we get 24 stitches

7.

in the next row we increase through 3 stitches, we get 30

8.

take a thread of a different color, this will be the top of the dress

9.

We knit several rows without increasing, the number of rows is arbitrary

10.

we note for ourselves that there should be a waist somewhere here, and we knit the next row only on one wall, the skirt will be tied to the second

11.

Take a thread of a different color (this is what we will have for the skirt and panties)
12.

knit a certain number of rows, stuff

13.

14.

we knit 15 stitches, now we will have legs

15.

Now we have 15 pets in each circle. We knit the legs-pants. Cut the thread, leaving a long end, as needed.

Our legs will be sewn on today, I decided so.

To do this, take a thread of the color that we will have shoes. We knit a chain of 2 stitches, in the first 6 stitches, then in the second round we make increases in each loop, we get 12 stitches

16.

knit three rows up and put a juniper bead inside for scent

17.

with the thread that is for the body, we knit several rows, stuff

18.

sew to the body with a knitted seam

It turned out ugly, but we'll fix it later

We do the same with the second leg. The result was a raskoryaka

21.

Now our girl has such an ugly hole, we sew it up with green thread, it’s not for nothing that we left a long end

22.

it turned out like this

23.

and no longer a raskoryak

24.

Now we have to knit her skirt. We cling to the remaining wall that we prepared at the waist

25.

here you need to make a sc, and in the next rows make even increases, first through two loops, in subsequent rows through three, four, etc.

26.

27.

then at a certain moment we decided that that’s enough, and we knit without increments

28.

We finished the skirt, now we need to make a frill

29.

it turned out something like this

30.

what about our legs? something needs to be fixed. Let's make her some frills there too

31.

33.

Now the apron

We knit a chain of VP absolutely by eye and make rows on them with ticks from dc

Here my camera is glitched and there is no photo of the apron at work

In the book by N. Botton there is practical advice: “Turn while knitting a row (for example, when making the pelvis and legs of a doll): do not knit the first loop. This way you will avoid the appearance of holes.”


Final detail

I tried to follow this advice, but, unfortunately, I still ended up with one hole. However, in the end (on the finished work) it does not catch the eye.

3. "Hands"(2 parts) : facial surface.

Cast on 4 loops.

1 row (white yarn): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (6)

Row 2: (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (8)

Row 3 (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (10)

Row 4 (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (12)

Row 5 (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (14)

Row 6 (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (16)

Row 7 (white): 1 increase at the beginning of the row, 1 increase at the end of the row = (18)

8 - 17 row (white): according to the picture

18 - 27 row (pink): according to the picture

28 - 32 row (white): according to the picture

Row 33 (fingers): knit 6, slip 6 stitches without knitting onto an auxiliary needle, knit 6

Row 34: according to the drawing (do not knit the delayed loops)

Row 35: *1 decrease, 2 loops*

Row 36: 1 loop, *1 decrease, 2 loops*

Row 37: 1 stitch, decrease until the end of the row.

Finger (stitches set aside): knit in circular rows (I knit on toe knitting needles):

1 - 2 circular rows: facial

Round 3: decreases.

4. Assembling the doll. We sew the main part, leaving holes on the back (for stuffing) and at the bottom of the foot (for centering the legs). We stuff the doll with synthetic fluff and sew up the holes.

In N. Botton’s book, it is recommended to sew the part from the wrong side and then turn it inside out. In my Soviet-pioneer childhood, I did a summer internship at a soft toy factory in the city of Gomel. We worked in the assembly shop, sat on the conveyor belt, sewed heads on bear cubs and dogs. There, the craftsmen taught us how to sew a hidden seam along the front side of the product, so I sew everything along the front side. Do as you feel comfortable.


When sewing the legs together, you will notice that the doll’s feet turn out to the sides, and the most gathered part of the foot is located not in the center, but on the side. The figure shows the dotted line where the bottom of the foot is joined (stitched). So the feet will “unfold” parallel to each other.

We sew the handles, stuff them with padding, and connect the body with the handles.


The doll is almost ready!


Volume is created by decreases and increases.


The bottom of the foot is stitched last (after centering).

5. We design the head. We make the doll's hair: embroider the bangs (it can also be made “sticking out”), cut the “hairs” to the required length (so that you can braid them).


First, we distribute the hairs on the head using pins, then we sew the hair with regular bobbin thread (hair by hair).


It is better to sew the hair symmetrically in several places. The final touch is to braid the hair.

6. We knit clothes.
