Soft but strong, this yarn was designed for making functional cloth you reach for every day.

Gist yarn has always provided great service and products. They never fail to have what I need.

Just Right

I use Beam repeatedly and find consistent quality. Pacific is one of my favorite colors and it is a nice compliment to many of the other colors. I’m currently weaving placemats on my rigid heddle loom, but also like it for towels.

3/2 Beam Cotton

It’s a great yarn. I used it in my dish towels with other yarns (8/2, 8/4). I’m not finished the towel yet, but so far it looks like a great addition for color and compatibility to the other yarns. Jam 3/2 is a beautiful and very striking color.

Perfect for placemats

Wove 8 placemats in turned twill 16 epi. Used Beam in warp and weft. Quick weave and fun colors.

Love Beam 3/2 Organic Cotton Yarn

I used this yarn in a houndstooth scarf. Easy to work with and the finished scarf has lovely drape after wet finishing. I will use it again!
