sooo question to you crochet peeps out there. I’m trying to think of a way to do Maggie’s hoofs…

Do you have any idea how to incorporate those dark red parts into the pink ones? I was almost thinking of first only doing the red parts and then filling the rest out with the pink but I don’t think it would look too good… short of just doing the pink hoofsies and then the red stripes and stitching the red stripes on, I have no idea how to do it otherwise…
