Little Red Riding Hood Dolls – Free Cross Stitch Patterns

This article introduces the second installment of the Doll Series: two free cross‑stitch patterns featuring Little Red Riding Hood in two sizes. These designs focus on soft outlines, gentle colors, and a doll‑like charm that is easy to stitch and suitable for both beginners and experienced stitchers.

A Small Return to a Quiet, Doll‑Like World

It has been a little while since the first Doll Series pattern, but returning to this world felt surprisingly warm—like opening a storybook you loved as a child. For the second design, I chose Little Red Riding Hood, a character who carries both innocence and quiet strength. Her red hood, her small basket, her steady steps through the forest… she has a timeless presence that translates beautifully into cross stitch.

This set includes two versions: a larger, more detailed doll and a smaller, simpler one. Both share the same gentle expression and soft silhouette, making them perfect for framing, gifting, or adding to your own collection of stitched characters. The clean lines and limited color palette also make them approachable for stitchers who prefer cute motifs that are not overly complicated.

Whether you stitch the small version, the large one, or both, I hope these little red‑hooded dolls bring a gentle moment to your needlework time and add a touch of fairy‑tale sweetness to your day.
