What is Yarn-mas, you ask? Gather round ye knitters, and we'll tell you a tale of how Yarn-mas came to be...

Born from the Spreadsheet of Dreams (our ever-growing wish list of hand dyers and yarn companies... many of them recommendations from you, our awesome customers!), Yarn-mas is a magical time of year when all of your wildest fiber-filled dreams come true!
Modeled after the classic Christmas carol, the Twelve Days of Christmas, Yarn-mas features a dozen custom colorways created by some of those coveted companies on our wish list as part of an extra-special, one-of-a-kind collection.

That's right! Twelve yarns from twelve companies we don't currently stock all rolled into one fiber-rific event! One color will be released per day of Yarn-mas, which starts today, December 1st, and runs through December 12th. We only have a very limited amount of each color available, so be sure to grab your favorites before they disappear.

If you don't want to miss anything, check the JBW home page every day for the announcement of each day's color, tune in to Facebook, Ravelry, Instagram and Twitter for extra info, or just keep hitting refresh on JimmyBeansWool.com/Yarnmas2014.

And don't forget to check out our yarn-tastic version of this classic carol - we couldn't resist! Merry Yarn-mas to all, and to all, a yarny life!

While we can't yet divulge the eleven days to come, we can fill you in on today, the 1st day of Yarn-mas!

As you can see in the photo above, Jenny really loves her Lumen shawl (albeit hers was made with a different yarn, she now wants another one with Loft...)!
