Cog Cycles and Yarns

@cogcycles

We’re a bike shop and also a yarn shop! Emphasis on yarn in the colder months, and bikes in the warmer ones. Always both, though!

This set looks so amazing together! They may be rivals in this Crosstown competition, but they really work well together ;) #Community #Chicago #ShopLocal #HandDyedYarn

Getting ready to come ashore and get back to work. Soon you’ll be able to preorder new Crosstown Craft Along colorways from your LYS. More info coming soon in newsblasts, Tuesday morning for me so get on the mailing list at gnomedepotfiber.com (free or paid) to get introduced to the whole game and then from your LYS soon after. I’m working on the last few things bts.
