Due to the success of crochet feathers, Ana Celia and Esperanza created a new tutorial for medium and small feathers. You can watch the video here.

Any yarn recommended to crochet with 3 mm hook. I used Herrschners 2-Ply Fashion Yarn on Boho Chic. I used variegated yarn but this is the perfect project to use all the leftovers of yarn.
