I would have given it full stars. It is exactly what I needed. I have made several orders and likely to do more! It has quality, thickness, and a large variety of colours. I'm using it for mostly Scandinavian hand towels, wash cloths, and reusable, washable, and economical dishcloths.

Customer Reviews
Great for crafts.
It’s a good cotton yarn for small crafts. I'm using it for maple leaf and oak leaf appliqués, skull appliqués, and pumpkin amigurumi. After blocking, they’re hiding their shape really well. I'm making a fall wreath with the leaves and pumpkin, the skulls are gifts for some friends.
Bright colors and easy to work with
I like the nice bright colours. I'm using it for a unicorn Christmas stocking. It is really easy to work with.
Great yarn for my sister's cardigan
I'm using it for a cardigan. I have done 2 previously, and they washed and bounced back into shape no problem. They are for my sister and she loves them. I have a few other projects to finish first.
Great yarn for summer and beyond
I'm using it for a cardigan for myself. I wanted something in pink, and I've used Paintbox cotton before, so I know it's a good yarn - and not just for summer! If a knitted cotton garment is looked after properly - washed as on the ball band - and it’s stored properly, then it keeps its shape. It’s on hold atm as I’m doing some test knitting.
Great cotton yarn for hats
I like the fact it was cotton and not acrylic. I'm using it for a hat. Sadly not started yet.
Lovecraft doesn't disappoint.
LoveCrafts never disappoints! The shipping is quick, and my favorite amigurumi yarn, Paintbox Cotton DK, is a quality yarn with predictable colors skein to skein. I love to make doll amigurumi. Paintbox has a couple of colors that help make both Caucasian and darker hued skin. Also, banana cream makes a perfect blonde hair. There are so many colors to choose from for making clothes for the dolls.
