As you'd expect, there are plenty of cute animals - ponies, complete with bridles and blankets, woolly sheep and naughty goats, adorably detailed chickens and more - but there's also a simple barn plus accessories such as milk churns, feeding troughs and wheelbarrows. A wonderful playset! -- Inside Crochet * Inside Crochet *
