Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK

I usually use wool yarns, but I bought this Painbox yarn for 2 reasons: to make a lightweight summer sweater (yes, I know I missed my window) and because Paintbox has nice, vibrant colors. Because cotton doesn't grab the needles as much wool does, I had to buy a bamboo circular needle to keep the sts from sliding off. Not quite finished, but even in this photo of my length test, the yarn looks darn nice.

This yarn has not been available for some time, making it hard to finish a project I started!

The paintbox yarns come in beautiful colours, it has a slight sheen on it. I've made a couple of bucket hats for my granddaughter and they have come out really nice.

Great colours, works up nicely. I made some socks and am planning on making some small amigurumi with this yarn next

I love using paintbox yarn- their range of colours are great, and they feel so nice in the cardigan that I've been making! My only issue with them is availability; the colours I need are very often out of stock, which sometimes discourages my to use this yarn when starting a new project. I'd probably use this for most of my projects if I knew that I could consistently get more of the same yarn when I needed it.

Lovely colours and texture for crochet and knitting projects.

Excellent quality cotton yarn. Beautiful choice of colours.

Lovely yarn to work with, beauriful pastel colour., knits up well, soft to touch wahes well.make sure you do a tension check I had to knit 2 sizes smaller than usual. Loved the results.

Good quality yarn and great range of colours.

Beginber at crochet and first time crocheting with a chunkier yarn. Very happy with it, easy to see stitches (and unravel!). Will be purchasing more colours so will have lots of choice for toys.
