Yarn substitution

[Peteyp]

Good morning, I am attempting to make a Vintage Cowl Dress. The yarn used in this project is Twilley's Gold fingering yarn. Does anybody have any suggestions for a substitution for this yarn.

I just googled it and this is what came up.

The first link shows where you may be able to buy it. The second shows others for fingering yarn. You may be able to get an idea of exactly what you may need. I would suggest a gauge swatch just to make sure it is the right one. Hope I haven't confused you.

This would probably work well. Sometimes available at Hobby Lobby's but mostly sold online at the store I've linked to.

This is my first post. To let you know a bit about me, I'm 77 years young and try to be very active, but crocheting is my passtime. Love to make gifts for my 4 great-grandchildren. Would love ideas to crochet for my 6 year old. It's difficult to find items for a boy.
Thank you in advance.
