Maybe you were on the fence about a few different options and need a tie-breaker?

Have no fear - Jimmy is here with a new Gift Guide that all you crafty mothers out there will love!
What's better than flowers? A bouquet of yarn flowers, of course! Why deal with the emotional weight of your flora kicking the bucket when you could turn those flowers into something special that you'll wear for years to come? For us, that seems like a no-brainer!
With the newest edition of the Jimmy Beans Wool Yarn Bouquets, you can indulge in the sweet sensation of sumptuous strings while reveling in the fact that they won't wilt - no guilt here! We're so excited to announce that this year, we've arranged some floral fun in the ways of the Starflake Shawl by Steven West! Using Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light, create a gorgeous, drapey wrap that keeps you both comfortable and fashionable, finding its way into your wardrobe with ease.

What better way to celebrate Mother's Day than by paying homage to Mother Earth!? Our newest kit focuses on our impact on the environment through our kitchen. Why use a million paper towels when you have gorgeous, handmade dishcloths to use? We're limiting our waste by doing our favorite thing in the world - knitting, of course!
Each kit comes with enough Blue Sky Fibers Organic Cotton yarn to make three dishcloths, three 2" wooden hoops to hang them up in a darling display, three 1" coconut shell buttons (a sustainable resource), the pattern needed to complete the dishcloths, and one bar of vegan, multi-purpose kitchen soap (with plastic-free packaging) from Cassia Organics. Use it as a replacement for dish soap or cleaning kitchen surfaces!
With each kit sold, we are donating $2.00 to the Food Bank of Northern Nevada

6.) Madelinetosh x Shibui Knits Collab Kits
Shibui Knits and Madelinetosh go together like bread and butter - it's a surprise this didn't happen sooner! This special palette of shades was dreamt up by the masterminds of color inspired by the desert. Rich shades of red and pale blue complemented by the greens and yellows of sagebrush transport us to a place where we're both cozy and free.
Holding two strands of yarn at a time or alternating between the two, create comfortable, fuzzy fabrics that will make their home effortlessly into your wardrobe. In chic, modern shapes and sleek designs, we can't choose just one!
