Fantastic selection and good value

I've been using various colours of this paintbox DK yarn for a large project recently, they're all fantastic. I always seem to create lots of fluff when working with cotton yarns but its minimal with this one, it knits up really nicely and the colours are true to what you order.
I've been loving using this DK cotton yarn recently - I'm currently working on a big and rather laborious project, so I'm going through a lot of yarn. Painbox yarns are always super sturdy and well spun, and the selection of colours is amazing.
Last year I used a small amount of this brown DK cotton yarn in a scarf I made, it's been washed numerous times through the winter and the colour hasn't faded. I'm now working on a larger project, and this paintbox yarn is just perfect, it's soft, easy to work with and has minimal fuzz.
This is a great cotton yarn it is very smooth and is easy to work with. Perfect for summer garments
Really love paintbox yarns. I’ve crocheted several garments out of the cotton dk yarn. It doesn’t split and easy to crochet with. The finished item seems to hold up well, after having washed it several times, good water and gentle cycle. I would recommend this yarn.
This is one of the yarns recommended by knittedknockers.org for making breast prosthetics to donate to women who have had mastectomies or lumpectomies. The yarn is well priced, comes in a wide variety of colors and it knits up beautifully. I'm currently knitting knocker #1399, almost exclusively with this yarn, which, especially when it is on sale, enables me to afford to donate as many KK's as I do.
Knits up well. Doesn’t split.
Excellent for making lightweight summer cardigans
Lovely to use and doesn't split. The blanket I crocheted felt really soft. Not sure what it would be like far a garment.
