Zipper Words Crossword Puzzle

Home» Crosswords» General
A zipper word contains two other words within it, where the odd letters spell one word and the even letters spell another (like the teeth of a zipper). An example would be CHAIRS (CAR + HIS). Each zipper word in this crossword will be indicated by ZIPPER, followed by two clues that form the smaller words.
