Oh my word, this yarn is gorgeous! It's a slightly thicker Aran with an unbelievably soft feel making it perfect for items worn next to the skin. I've just finished a hooded scarf for my daughter in readiness for the colder days, and she loves it. I used a slightly bigger hook than recommended to give a super soft feel to the scarf, the dropped the hook size by .5mm for the hood, which worked perfectly. It's a lovely yarn to crochet with, it doesn't split or tangle, just passes through the...
Lovely soft yarn to knit with and warm with the wool element. Beautiful range of ombre shades, have made one jumper and currently knitting my second!
the colour was picked by my grandson who wanted me to knit him a hooded jumper. the colour is gorgeous knitted up its a mix of red tones ( red, burgundy maroon. The yarn is soft, feels light and knits up beautifully would highly recommend. Will be buying more as my other grandsons want me to knit the same jumper for them but they'll be choosing the colours lol
A lovely yarn for winter clothing. When crocheting. Is prone to split, would not recommend for a beginner
Paintbox Yarn Ombré is a nice surprise ! Much softer than expected The size of the yarn is constant. No thick and thin. No knots. The change of color is fun to work with. The final pattern of the colors is a total surprise. I follow a pattern given by Paintbox (Against the Gradient Cardigan) that I modified somewhat (V neck and a few cables). The final feel of the work is more wooly than synthetic. Very happy with this purchase. JLC
Bought wool online whilst away on holiday expecting it to come the day after I returned. I was so surprised that it arrived before I got home. Service etc is excellent Easy to knit with and such a lovely colour. Would recommend this company.
