Mini Doll Scarves

Ten mini scarves, sold one at a time so you can build a colour range instead of buying a bundle you only half use. Each scarf is cut short, so it sits as a single wrap with the ends left loose at the front, or drapes over the shoulders when a doll is sitting down. Worn with a sweater or a jacket, a scarf is the quickest way to make a doll look dressed for cold weather, and it is usually the piece people notice first in a photo.

The ten colours fall into four groups. Neutrals first: white, black and light grey, which sit with almost anything else in a wardrobe. Browns next, in three depths: light brown, brown and dark brown, useful under a coat or beside a cream or tan knit. Then the greens, a mid green and an olive green, which are the most seasonal of the ten. The last two are deeper tones, a dark blue and a burgundy, both of which read well against grey and black clothing. Ten images show all ten colours. Read as a group, the ten fall roughly in half between the quiet tones and the ones that carry a scene on their own.

At $3.99, down from $4.99, a scarf is the cheapest way to change a doll's outfit without buying another garment, and the three for $9.99 bundle offer lets you take a neutral, a brown and a brighter tone together. This is an add-on piece: it works alongside the sweaters, pullovers and jackets in the Outfits range, and it is easy to store between seasons.

If you keep a shelf or a room scene, the Seasonal items in our room range pair naturally with a scarf, and the Display & Storage pieces give you somewhere to keep the ones you are not using rolled up rather than crumpled in a box. Two dolls in the same sweater but different scarves look like two separate characters, which is an inexpensive way to make a small collection feel varied.

Care: these are small accessories, so keep the routine simple. Hand wash them cool, squeeze gently instead of twisting, and air dry flat so the ends do not curl and the weave keeps its shape. Keep them away from heat and store them loosely between wears.
