I've made crochet critters using worsted yarn. I guess they'd be smaller if
I used thinner yarn, but they're not really big even so.

I have never tried these tiny critters because I don't have the patience to
use very thin yarns. Is there any encouragement for me? Maybe a yarn that
holds together and doesn't split?
Thanks and blessings,

Tracy,
Let us know if you make any of these. I downloaded the audio a year ago, and
got stuck because each one begins with the magic ring and I couldn't figure
out that stitch. I do know how to do it now, I think, and a braille version
will be much easier to follow than audio for me.
Anyway, let us know your progress, please!

Sorry Henry, H is a hippo, not a horse. I was disappointed, too. But there
is a unicorn, and a zebra.
