Learn about Jimmy Beans:

Laura and her husband, Doug, worked as software engineers during the dot-com era. When they saw the dot-com boom turning to a bust they decided to leave their jobs and start a new adventure.

Jimmy Beans has been named to the 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies in the US list four times! They are a booming operation that doesn’t forget to take time to raise awareness for the things that matter most to them. Laura has created successful national campaigns such as Stitch Red, Stitch Mountain and Beans for Brains.

When you put your money behind Jimmy Beans you are supporting so much more than the yarn business itself.

The store is really fun to visit and they have really nice events many times a year. If you are ever in the Lake Tahoe area, be sure and visit the store in Reno.

    So happy to enjoy a cup of coffee while getting to watch this. I had wondered what was going on. Confession; madelinetosh yarn is the reason I learned how to knit! Lol While scrolling on pinterest one day I saw a beautiful herringbone project and it was in her yarn. After that I knew I had to learn to knit so I could one day make it! 2 years later I’ve made that scarf, and while due to finances I haven’t had to chance to work with madelinetosh yarn I can relax knowing I still have the chance to eventually! 🙂

My granddaughter that is six wants me to make her a sweater out of it. I’m hoping to find some more to go with it. To try to knit her a sweater. She loves the socks I made her.

    OMG……..I didn’t even know that St.Charles had a yarn store…….my mind is blown actually. I’ve really been trying to learn about all the aspects of the yarny world. I’m so into everything that you’re into this podcast has hit me, and I am so into this all. I’m a newbie to the yarny world, and I feel like I’m very likeminded. I would love to be a part of this movement! I’m disabled with Fibromyalgia, and I’m trying to start my own online shop selling my crochet items, and I’ve wanted to sell yarn, and all kinds of crafting items!!! This is such a great community!!!!
