Beautiful yarn and beautiful pattern! I love the stitch work! I think it will look gorgeous on her with her auburn hair.

I see you have gotten a few great suggestions from fellow crafters which is great because I sure couldn’t help you with knitting right now. I’m still trying to master the basics (when I have time which is hardly ever 😏). I hope some of these suggestions work for you. I’ll be looking forward to seeing the progress of your work!!
