| Urth and Jamieson's Kits Fit For The Season! Choose Your Own Club Adventure! | | |
Family is everything to us at Jimmy Beans Wool! Since day one, we have operated as a family-owned yarn shop focused on bringing quality yarns to our customers! Going 20 years strong, what once was a small yarn and coffee shop in Truckee, CA has transformed into an over 20,000 sq. ft. warehouse in Reno stocked to the brim with all of Jimmy's favorite yarns and 25+ employees, with the mission to bring stunning and superior strands to your project bags!
|
As a fellow family-owned business that has now spanned five generations over 120 years, Jamieson's of Shetland has specialized in unique wool spun from native Shetland sheep.
Dedicated to the survival of their unique fibers, as each generation joins the business, they continue to evolve and grow just like Team Beans! That's why we are SO excited to welcome these classic wools to our warehouse for our customers to shop!

When was the last time you took a nature walk? There is something so relaxing about inhaling a big breath of fresh air, hearing your shoes crunch on leaves and twigs, and watching the wildlife scurry up trees. Depending where you are, it might be a little cold to venture outside right now, but Urth Yarns is bringing the joy of the outdoors to our project bags this winter!
Harvest Fingering is hand-dyed by Turkish artisans using all natural ingredients! The nature inspired names actually come from the roots, fruits, and nuts used to dye the skeins. Made from 100% Extra Fine Superwash Merino Wool, this yarn is so soft and springy that our Beans just can't keep their hands off of it! With 435 yards per hank, this yarn is fantastic for everything from sumptuous sweaters to cozy cowls!

Urth is also feeling the holiday spirit with their Hanukkah and Christmas colors! Whether you are lighting candles or stuffing stockings, this yarn gets us in the mood to make some magnificent presents.
This super-soft self-stripping Merino Wool is available in Uneek Fingering, Uneek DK, and Uneek Worsted making you feel festive from your head to your toes!
|
You can also give the gift of warm feet with Uneek Sock Kits! Whether you make them ahead of the holiday or gift them to your favorite knitter, these kits come with two pre-wound cakes to make a pair of stripy seasonal socks!

Project On Our Needles!
Alex F's No Frills Sweater
How cozy does this sweater look?! Our Bean, Alex F, admitted that she can't help but pet herself whenever she wears it because it is SO soft! Designed by PetiteKnit, Alex knit this plush pullover with Madelinetosh Sock in the color copper pink, and to give it its fuzzy texture, she used Berroco Aerial in Tea Rose! The results are so pretty we are all tempted to make our own!
