About Jimmy Beans Wool: In 2002, former Silicon Valley engineers Laura and Doug Zander opened up a tiny yarn shop in Truckee, California. Jimmy, as Laura is lovingly known, sold coffee alongside the wool (hence beans in the name), and Jimmy Beans Wool was born! In 2004, the company settled down in Reno, Nevada. Over the last five years, Laura has expanded the Jimmy Beans Wool brand family through strategic acquisitions & product launches, including della Q, Madelinetosh, Jimmy's SmartStix, Dream In Color, Yarn Citizen, Shibui Knits, and Simply Shetland. In 2024, Laura announced the formation of the Maddytosh Group, a distribution group for its wholesale brands.
