BCB, Hat Shoppe snuggle puzzle
Boy, I am terrible at these puzzles where you just snuggle a bunch of pieces together, and they sort of ambiguously fit together, in the subtlest of ways …. Hoefnagel sent me a pack with the Chris Yates puzzle and this BCB “Hat Shoppe” puzzle. I was able to (correctly) assemble quite a few sets […]
Wriggle by Fool’s Gold
Okay, this is an half-completed entry in our family puzzle log.

The shiny bag material in which the puzzle was shared is so familiar to me […]
