Customer Reviews
Wonderful yarn for a special project
I've made a vest for my husband as a surprise for his birthday. I had to work on it when he wasn't at home. The yarn is wonderful, smooth to work with, not prone to splitting, and it worked up beautifully. It didn't pill or get fuzzy. I'm waiting for his birthday to give it to him; I won't know until then.
Great color and price for a blanket
I'm using it for a blanket. I like the colour and price. Not started.
Great yarn for blankets
I have been using this yarn for years for crocheting blankets. I love the colour range, the thickness, and value for money.
very good yarn choice
I like the good value and has a nice feel to it. Hopefully will make a cardigan.
Great yarn for knitting
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.
Reliable yarn for complex projects
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.
Vibrant colors and great weight
I made a crochet blanket. The Paintbox Simply Aran is a nice weight for a blanket. The Paintbox yarn colors are so vibrant. I just trusted the process and it worked luckily.
Great value and color options
I like the fantastic value. I'm using it for a crochet baby blanket. I'm finding it's not the softest aran yarn but has good stitch definition. It works well for blankets, and it has great colour options.
Lovely to knit with - Paintbox Aran 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...
