Paintbox Yarns Simply DK is my favorite "mitten yarn'! I knit lots of mittens! Mittens are always in progress around my other projects. If I have just a few minutes I can pick them up and have a little calm moment. This DK yarn comes in so many "kid friendly" colors! It"s consistent in texture, color, length of skeins, ease of use. The only "problem" I have ever encountered is that sometimes colors are unavailable. Even that doesn't last long! My patterns are decades old, as I am, and still no...

I'm a happy customer. I'll be returning to buy more, for sure!
This also is the same yarn I previously reviewed except it's Blush Pink. The colors are exceptional and true to what is shown on the website. They offer a wide variety of colors and the 3 I chose are exactly what I ordered. I ordered several skeins of the same color and I didn't have any dye lot issues. All pink skeins were the exact same color, and this was true for the Mint green and the Cream.

This yarn is beautiful to work with, it's smooth, and soft. I'm crocheting a baby blanket and the softness of the yarn and the pastel colors are lovely for this project. I would recommend this yarn for all your Dk weight projects. And another plus is the price, very reasonable!
I often choose Paint Box yarns, both DK and Baby Dk. The yarns are stable and don't come apart as I work a pattern. I love the color selection. I always watch for their sales. The savings are substantial.
My order shipped quickly. and arrived accurately, which is always important for a project. I loved it so much I bought a bit more since the price was on point! I will definitely be using this yarn and your company again
Good all round experience
Bought various colours of Paintbox yarns for a charity project that required squares of a set dimension. As I have mentioned previously, I found the different colours to come up to different tensions when knitting, so I crocheted granny squares, which are easier to fit. Also, I found the dark green to have a woollier texture to the other colours I was using. However, I do like working with these yarns and am sure that different projects would probably work quite well.
I really like this yarn. It’s hard to find this lightweight yarn in colors that aren’t “baby” pastels. I especially like all the shades of beige and brown as I use them as skin tones for dolls. It works up smoothly and doesn’t split.
Superfast delivery. The yarn is a good consistent thickness that doesn't split when being crochet with. Great variety of colours at a very reasonable price. My new favourite go to for projects big or small
I purchased these yarns to make a baby blanket. The colours were lush. Just be aware champagne white is a bit on the cream side i didn't mind. The whole shopping process was smooth and easy. Quick delivery. I am very pleased with my prchase and will shop from Love craft again.
Huge choice, great prices
Beautiful soft yarn and the colour is exactly as shown, its a pleasure to crochet with, I would definitely recommend this yarn
