I like the large range of colours and that it’s easy to knit with. I like the fact it’s 100% cotton. It has a good price too. I’m using it for Neck Warmer’s and Wrist Warmer’s for myself and friends for the winter months. Everyone so far has been delighted with them. It is nice and light to wear. Thanks.
I like the great range of colours. I've used the DK cotton for 4 baby blankets, two in pastels, one in brights, and one in various greens, all with vanilla cream. The cotton DK does take a long time to dry when crocheted as the stitch is heavy. Not suitable for everyday use given the UK's climate, more of a heavy duty topper.
I'm using it for a cardigan. I have done 2 previously, and they washed and bounced back into shape no problem. They are for my sister and she loves them. I have a few other projects to finish first.
I've always been happy with Paintbox Cotton DK. I use it for kitchen cloths, to use myself and to give as gifts. It's absorbent and pretty. I haven't finished one yet in Paintbox yarn. I've only just begun to use Paintbox Cotton DK for this, so I don't know fully how it fares with repeated washing. I have made many kitchen cloths with Scheepjes Catona and Yarn Colors Must-Have, and I've been happy with its longevity, although the sheen it comes with wears off with repeated washings. I didn't...
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.
I like the fact it was cotton and not acrylic. I'm using it for a hat. Sadly not started yet.
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.
This is a great cotton yarn it is very smooth and is easy to work with. Perfect for summer garments
