Troubleshooting
Fly hood does not fit toy pony securely
Ensure the fly hood is positioned correctly over the toy pony's ears and mane. If it's for a very small toy, consider adding a tiny, discreet stitch to secure it if necessary for play.
Crochet detail appears loose or snagged
Carefully use a small needle to tuck any loose threads back into the crochet work. Avoid pulling on the threads.
Suede ears become dirty
Gently wipe the suede with a dry or very slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following its instructions carefully.
