Y'know, there are plenty of sayings out there about how rainbows signify change - phrases about how grey skies don't last forever and there's a rainbow at the end of a struggle. They represent the calm after a storm and the feeling of lightness you get after a particularly difficult conflict. That lightness is comparable to the ease and comfort we get when we knit or crochet new projects. The meditative stitches and fun pops of texture or color always make for a great time!

To reflect this feeling of excitement for a new journey, particularly in the world of making, we're springing a surprise on you - a new colorway of the fan-favorite della Q Oh Snaps! Think of this as one foot in the door for something a lot bigger in the future of della Q (coming soon!). Fades are great, but rainbows?? Well, we can't say no to rainbows, hehe!

 

Available in two sets, S/M/L, and XL/XXL, these handy little treasures are easily some of our favorite project bags. The mesh structure makes it easier to see what project is in which bag, while the snaps make it easy to open and close (and string yarn in between to organize your colorwork)!

Use them as a personal yarn bowl or simply just to organize your stash, with each size lending itself well to whatever you need. Large projects? Small notions? We've got the snaps for that!

The first rule of Fright Club... is to tell your friends and family about Fright Club! Rising from the dead comes our popular Halloween Make-Along suitable for knitters and crocheters alike! With strings spun by spiders and colors curated from the crypt, this Halloween is certainly gonna be a blast!

Each project this year was designed by our resident vampire countess, Amy Gunderson. Did you know she can knit AND crochet while hanging upside down? Yeah, we couldn't believe it either! She entered the Jimmy Beans warehouse after the sunset to show us her designs, and ever since then, we've been going a little batty in preparation for All Hallow's Eve!

Similar to last year, we have two options: The large, month-long make-along that ends with a matching cowl and mitts set, or the 13-day sprint to create a beanie. Each project comes with two colorways to best match your spooky spirit with the muted Delicate choice and the ultra-fun Brilliant option.

Walking on Sunshine!

We've got rainbows on from our heads down to our toes! Sometimes we aren't as obvious in our rainbow obsession as we would like to be. Walking around with an entire rainbow ensemble would be a dream, but we know it can be hard to style at times, which is why sometimes we love being a little sneaky in showing that love to rainbows. And nothing is more sneaky than wearing rainbow socks! They can quite literally put some pep in your step!

Rainbow-Rific!

Want to be a little more overt in your love for rainbows?

Whatever your wants may be, we've got the kit for you!

 
Urth Beaubourg Shawl Kit

Urth

Beaubourg Shawl Kit

One of our favorites (and yours as well!) will always be the breathtaking Beaubourg Shawl created by Julie Knits in Paris! Inspired by the museum of contemporary art of the same name, Julie Dubreux dreamed up this creation, perfectly encapsulating the colorful pipes that run up the facade of the museum.

To bring these pipes to life in a fiber setting, Julie composed a large, rectangular wrap that uses two-color brioche and slipped stitches against a background of garter stitch to make a texturized masterpiece that is as cozy as it is colorful!

Rainbow Order Header
 

Hey you, yeah you! Did you know you can switch up how the yarn and accessories on our site appear to make your browsing experience more streamlined and easier to navigate? Everything is automatically placed in rainbow order to make it easy to find that perfect shade you need to finish up your newest project. This way, you can better compare undertones and heathered shades without having to open up multiple tabs on the same yarn - talk about smart!

You can also limit your search further by filtering by color! By clicking on the colored bubbles underneath an item's description, you can filter out colors so you only view the one you've chosen. Found a yarn you like that has a million colors? That can get pretty overwhelming and distracting - just filter out everything but the color you're looking for, whether it be red, blue, purple, or pink! Once you're done, you can click the x on the filter tag that appears next to the colored bubbles, and that will bring back the rest of those yummy yarns!
