I was just wondering if the larger Crimp and Curl Ponies or Pets have the same thickness of their hair as the Crimp and Curl Magic Meadow Ponies. I only have one Magic Meadow Pony so I have no way to compare. Thanks in advance.

Off the top of my head, I'd say the hair is the same, just longer. It's possible it's a little thicker, but it has the same consistency and feel of the MM ponies.

The thickness is what I am worried about. I am looking for what to use as donor hair to make a MLP based on a MM pony without actually having to take the hair from a MM pony.

Hmm. That's tricky. I'd say that the hair on the larger CP animals is close enough- there might be a difference in thickness, but it's not dramatic. Like, I would have to hold them up to one another and really look carefully. It's pretty close, if different at all.
However, I'm not sure if the larger animals are easier to get or less valuable than the MM ponies- sometimes the crimp and curl horses go for over $10 a piece, depending on the current market of course. It varies. MM ponies can be hard to move, and I have definitely had some bait ones pass through my hands.
Whatever you decide to do, I'm looking forward to seeing the final product!

So maybe that would not be the best solution. Is there any way I could make my own Crimp and Curl hair or at least simulate it? I mean like any way to make yarn hair that could hold its shape?
