We don't know that there are many things cuter than artist Amy Kett's brilliantly designed Crankypants. Each pair is hand knit using 100% wool from the Peruvian Highlands that has been locally small batch died especially for Crankypants. They are perfect for everyday wear and can also be used as a natural cloth diaper cover (as wool will absorb and hold up to 30% of its own weight in liquid!) Every size features extra rows knit into the bum to make room for a cloth diaper and a drawstring waist for growing room. As the wool is hand dyed, please allow for very slight color variations. Hand wash. Care instructions included.

MyMimi ABC Animal Magnets Now we know that you're smarter than you look - you babies with your drooling and your babbling and your drunken stagger of a walk. It's a very convincing front that you most certainly should use to your advantage. Next time the adults leave the room, use these ABC magnets to leave them a message on the refrigerator door. When they return to the kitchen and yelp with surprise, just point at the dog and continue babbling.

Cupcake Handbag, Strawberry Frosting Attempting to hide 'undesirable' food at the dinner table was a fine art form when we were kids. You could always hide a few beans under the mashed potatoes or wrap a couple carrots in your napkin for disposal, but the cook usually busted us. Now had we been able to disguise our veggies in a lovely little cupcake handbag we might have made it out of the kitchen door. (Please note that the management does not recommend this item for food storage!) A word to the adults: From the delicious imagination of Amy Gaines at Purl, we’re serving up sugary sweet cupcake handbags. Created from Amy’s original design, each bag is individually hand crocheted with a chocolate base and strawberry frosting. Untie the drawstring handles and there’s plenty of room for your little one to store all manner of good stuff. Each drawstring is capped with a lovely bead and as such we recommend this item for ages 3 and up. Wash on gentle and low tumble dry.

Big Black Boots Baby Booties, 0-6 mo. Long before you were born, in the stone age we now know as the 1980s, absolutely everyone we knew had a pair of these boots.

They are also all made to order, so please expect a two to three week turn-around time. (Although, it will probably be sooner!) And we may have a few pair in inventory if you need them ASAP, email us before ordering and we'll check stock for you. Machine washable and dryable for easy care. $30.00

Now we know the Cowardly Lion’s gruffness was really just a put-on and that his true nature was considerably sweeter, softer and loveable – not unlike our new blankets from JakC Designs. Oakland native Jen Chee beautifully pairs the loftiest fleece with the softest flannel as the backdrop for her charming and stylized felt appliqués. Put it all together and you have one substantial blanket, generous in scale and able to soothe even the most savage of beasts.
