The Looking Glass Cowl in Entropy

Each skein of Entropy Chunky's got a stripey, one-of-a-kind ply that mimics handspun yarns and we absolutely love it in this plump, fast-working size!

Milled, dyed, and spun by Feederbrook Farms in Maryland, Entropy is a perfect match for cool-weather projects like cowls, scarves, hats...even sweaters!

Every skein of Entropy is different, so if you're working on a multiple skein project, you just gotta embrace the variations! We worked up a couple of Jill DeMarco's Looking Glass cowls in it and are pleased as punch with the results. We paired it with solid shades of Ikigai's Chibi Paka Chunky; you only need one skein of each for a finished Looking Glass!

Pattern note: we veered from the pattern as written. We cast on 72 stitches (instead of 60) using US 11 16" circular needle and we repeated rounds 4-15 one extra time. It's not errata if we meant to do it!

Fox & Sheep Tape Measure Restock

Look, we know you keep losing your tape measures. We know this because we keep selling out of ours! No worries: we've restocked these perennially popular crocheted fellas. We've got a flock of sheep and a skulk of foxes ("Skulk"! We looked it up!) ready for all sorts of measuring, whether you lean metric or imperial (the tapes feature both systems).

Find the sheep RIGHT HERE and the fox RIGHT HERE. The fox comes in a few different colors; we'll pick for you, but if you have a preference, pop it into the "notes" box during checkout and we'll do our best...but no guarantees!
