"Brilliant yarn to work with. It has an amazing range of colours. I knitted tote bags, with a darker toned base, which were very successful. All the recipients loved them. My son uses his for vegetable shopping, my daughter for work, and my granddaughter for all her holiday bits and pieces. The cotton stretched slightly but no problem as long as the bags weren't overloaded with heavy contents."

Lovely Cotton Yarn in Great Colour Options

I'm using it for making romper suits for my daughter’s twin girls. I was looking for a particular color in a cotton DK yarn. I was very happy with the yarn.

Great yarn for summer and beyond

I'm using it for a cardigan for myself. I wanted something in pink, and I've used Paintbox cotton before, so I know it's a good yarn - and not just for summer! If a knitted cotton garment is looked after properly - washed as on the ball band - and it’s stored properly, then it keeps its shape. It’s on hold atm as I’m doing some test knitting.

Great feel and durability

I love this yarn for the feel and drape after it’s worked up. I use it often for baby blankets. It holds up well with repeated washing.

Great cotton yarn for hats

I like the fact it was cotton and not acrylic. I'm using it for a hat. Sadly not started yet.

Lovecraft doesn't disappoint.

LoveCrafts never disappoints! The shipping is quick, and my favorite amigurumi yarn, Paintbox Cotton DK, is a quality yarn with predictable colors skein to skein. I love to make doll amigurumi. Paintbox has a couple of colors that help make both Caucasian and darker hued skin. Also, banana cream makes a perfect blonde hair. There are so many colors to choose from for making clothes for the dolls.
