help with hair color for doll

[HookedByMarilyn]

I am making a doll and strawberry blonde hair was requested. How do I do that? What color would I use?

Red Heart is usually what I use but … I have some flamingo but it doesn’t seem quite right.

Thoughts?

Super saver-coral
I love this yarn-light peach

Maybe a coral color would work?

Hmm, to be safe I would ask the requester what they consider to be strawberry blonde hair (since when I google, different shades of colors pop up lol, maybe have them show you pictures of the color) and then look at yarn that could match that color

I was actually looking for coral but they only had flamingo. I might have to look through my leftover stash and see if I still have any.

This is gonna sound bad, but I have girls with strawberry blonde hair. Beautiful too. Maybe that’s why I’m struggling.

Oh, I can totally see that being super hard if you have kids with that color hair!

2 strands. I hope it shows.

I like the combination! Good choice

[HookedByMarilyn]

You guys helped. I found the peachy looking one after this thread. It should be good.

Well, I’m glad you didn’t pick yellow and threw some red yarn in there.

Could have tried this. Too dark though.

Works!
