Cotton vs. Acrylic

I'm up to ten toys now. The original ones I made in wool that I had laying around. Today I decided to experiment with some cotton and some acrylic that I have. The acrylic worked out really well, but the cotton came out too loose. It was hard for me to knit it tightly enough that it won't have holes in it, and after just one cotton one my hands hurt so I think I'll stick to the acrylic or wool.
I really like how these things show off the colors in the yarn, the rows are short enough that the color changes really come through.
