There is a little girl who is the daughter of a great friend of mine. I can envision her proudly wearing this out to school every day. I could do the scarf in a pretty purple or pink, then just change the colors of the cupcake icings so that they do not match. I like to change things up all the time when following patterns found on this website. I am creative like that, and I encourage all of you to do the same! Have fun with this one!

at the end of Row 2, it says, "sc in turning chain". Is that that same as "sc in ch 2 space"?

Looks nice. Is there a video tutorial of the scarf pattern? I'm new to crocheting and always find the first and last stitch to be a challenge. I started it last night and would love to know if I'm doing the edges correctly.

What does RS mean? These are going to be perfect for the children at the Ronald McDonald House, but I want to make sure they are perfect.

@daviddraper - In the context of a crochet pattern, RS generally means "right side." Hope this helps! -- Editor of FaveCrafts.com

This is an adorable pattern. I'm making it for my granddaughter's 6th birthday. I do have a question; should the repeat, row 4, be for row 3?

I never wrote the pattern for the hat. Just start with 6sc and evenly increase until you get the desired diameter circle. Then just work the sides in the same pattern as the scarf. Jennifer
