Squonk Hats
Description: The legendary Squonk, weeping cryptid of Pennsylvania's hemlock forests. This shirt "design" was based on an illustration by Coert Du Bois in Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods, With a Few Desert and Mountain Beasts, a 1910 "fantasy field guide" by William Thomas Cox (specifically as it was reprinted in the January 28, 1912 issue of the New York Daily Tribune).
Description: The squonk is of a very retiring disposition, generally traveling about at twilight and dusk. Because of its misfitting skin, which is covered with warts and moles, it is always unhappy...Hunters who are good at tracking are able to follow a squonk by its tear-stained trail, for the animal weeps constantly. When cornered and escape seems impossible, or when surprised and frightened, it may even dissolve itself in tears. — William T. Cox, "The Squonk", Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods (1910)
Description: In the shadowy forests of Pennsylvania resides a creature both elusive and sorrowful - the Squonk. Its skin is saggy and warty, and its feet are webbed. The Squonk weeps constantly and if captured, will quickly dissolve into a puddle of tears.

Description: This is a Skillful Ferret rendition of the Cryptid Squonk, a creature with loose ill fitting skin, warts, and a retiring disposition (so recluse or shy that they appear unfriendly). This creature is always crying and when cornered can dissolve itself with its own tears. It will avoid reflective surfaces to keep from seeing itself. This depiction shows it mid-hop as it flees. Its arms are only small nubs incapable of hiding its face.
