Review summary
Most reviews praise the yarn's softness, smooth feel and easy handling, along with its colour range and value for money. Complaints are uncommon and mostly concern knots, uneven thickness and colours going out of stock for long periods.
Summarized by AI
It is beautiful to knit with, it is lovely and soft, and it is a very good price. I am making an aran jumper for my 2 gt grandsons, and I have already purchased another lot to make 2 more. I don't knit as fast as I used to, so it maybe a little while until they are finished.
I like the large range of colours available and the consistency throughout each ball and across the colours. It's vital that there is consistency in weight/thickness across the different balls, and it has that. I'm making a rainforest theme blanket, so there are areas with subtle shades of green with bright parts in between. The weight of the wool means the blanket builds quickly.
I like the good quality yarn. I like that it is nice to crochet with and has great colours to choose from. I use it for a jumper, it's working up great.
I love Paintbox yarn. It offers great value for the price. I am making a blanket and also use it for amigurumi toys. It holds up well.
I love the Paintbox range and have quite a few different colors in the Aran. I'm making a waffle lap blanket for my elderly neighbour for Christmas. It's so easy; only 2 rows make the pattern.
I like the lovely quality soft Aran perfect for jumper.
I like the good value and has a nice feel to it. Hopefully will make a cardigan.
I'm knitting a jumper, and so far it's knitting up nicely. I like the colour range mainly. It's really nice to work with, it's soft and consistent in colour.
I have used this make of yarn several times, and it always knits up well and is reasonably priced. I have tackled several ladies fashion projects with fairly complex patterns, and they always produce a good completed article with perfect tension. It must boil down to the fiber of the yarn.
This is my first time knitting with paintbox (Aran) yarn. It is lovely to work with and the Aran pattern stands out well. There have been no knots in the yarn either. I found the 20 ball pack to be excellent value and would certainly purchase in the future. I haven’t had the opportunity to wash yet but 🤞 when I do hopefully it will wash well. The only issue I had was with delivery. Having been notified the package would be delivered between specific hours on specific days I made myself...
