About GarnbyJacobsen
GarnbyJacobsen is a Danish yarn webshop run by Lotte Lysholt, with a selection centred on knitting and natural materials. Its catalogue brings together brands such as Gepard Garn, LAMANA, Lana Grossa and Urth Yarns, alongside patterns, knitting kits and tools. The mix gives shoppers room to explore both familiar garment yarns and collections where colour or fibre texture plays a larger role.

The shop distinguishes between knitting kits that include a pattern and yarn packs without one. That is a useful detail when planning a project: a bundle of yarn is not necessarily a complete kit. Its own digital patterns sit alongside designs from other suppliers, while the blog shares projects and ideas for working with alternative yarns.
From a basement shop to Odense
Lotte started the business in 2016 with a small assortment in a basement, initially opening one day a week alongside her work as an educator. She later established a shop in a townhouse on the square in Tønder, before moving to premises on the pedestrian street.
In 2024, she closed the physical shop and moved to Odense. GarnbyJacobsen now operates as a webshop from there. Its background remains closely connected to one knitter's experience of choosing materials and seeing customers' finished work.
Exploring yarn combinations
GarnbyJacobsen's categories include companion yarns, sock yarns and fibres such as wool, linen, silk and mohair. These offer different starting points for a project. A fine mohair strand held with another yarn can change the surface and gauge, while a multicoloured yarn can alter the appearance of even a simple stitch pattern.
When considering an alternative, use the full product name and compare the resulting fabric. A washed sample is especially useful for yarn combinations, where the properties of two strands need to work together.
