Yarn Twins!

Hmmm...very curious. I ordered Happy Feet sock yarn in the colorway Summer Sweet from DBNY and Filatura Lanarota Fashion Toes sock yarn in the colorway #7 from Smiley's and they appear to be the same yarn. Not similar yarn...but the exact same yarn.

They look exactly alike, no?


They are both 90% superwash merino wool and 10% nylon. They are both made in Peru. Fashion Toes is 193 yds per skein. Happy Feet is 192 yds per skein.

Very curious indeed.

Now, I know that it is supposed to be bad luck to spot a doppelganger, but I consider it lucky to discover yarn twins.

The best part? I got both brands on clearance :)
Happy Feet was $3.49 and Fashion Toes was $2.99. Both are regularly $6.99/skein.
