Hummel Figurine 'Knit One, Purl Two' (possibly 'Knitting Lesson' or similar)

The item is a small, glazed ceramic or porcelain figurine depicting a young girl seated, engrossed in knitting. The girl has light brown hair with a prominent red bow on top and a smaller red bow or scarf-like detail around her neck. Her eyes are cast downwards, focusing on the knitting project. She is wearing a teal or light blue dress with what appears to be white polka dots or embroidered elements, and her legs are clad in striped pants, primarily yellow and green, with subtle pink or peach accents. Her shoes or feet are a dark green color. The knitting project itself is a soft pink and yellow, with visible 'stitches' sculpted into the piece, and she holds tiny 'knitting needles' in her hands. The figurine exhibits a soft color palette typical of Goebel Hummel products, with matte and glossy finishes creating texture. The overall craftsmanship suggests high-quality production, with fine details like individual fingers and facial features carefully rendered. No apparent chips, cracks, or significant damage are visible from the provided image, indicating good condition with possible minor surface wear consistent with age and handling. The base of the figurine is not fully visible, so manufacturing marks cannot be confirmed, but its style is strongly indicative of a Hummel figurine.
