Tell us what you think about it.
I make blankets for the charity Project Linus. They require acrylic yarn for knit or crocheted blankets, so I'm always searching for yarn that is soft, knits without splitting, is reasonably priced with a variety of colors and makes up nicely....Paint Box Simply Aran meets my criteria perfectly.
One of my favorite go-to yarns for my Celtic Cable Crochet Throw designs. Love the consistency and lack of knots in the skeins.
Love. Love Crafts
Super soft, feels nice to crochet with
Reasonable stock levels. Quick delivery.
I’ve bought this shade before. The high standard is still exceptional. The darker green shade is perfect for what I needed. There were no knots, no joins, no thinning, just as my previous purchase. It knits up beautifully and washes well. This is why I love Paintbox yarns.
Excellent quality yarn with prompt service. Thoroughly recommend it.
The yarn was the correct thickness. Excellent and true colour and easy to work with. Arrived promptly and ecologically wrapped. Will definitely order more when I’ve finished this project. Even with the price of postage, it was one of the cheapest yarns I’ve used without skimping on quality.
Love this yarn and company!
This is great yarn. I crochet and I used it for granny squares for a cardigan. Worked up well with no splitting. It’s super soft and really looking forward to completing my project and wearing my cardigan. I’m very pleased with the yarn and liked there are several nice color choices. I definitely will be purchasing again and highly recommend! In the picture it is the outside mushroom color. Love it!
Go-to place for crochet and knitting yarns
I purchased a big bundle of this Aran-type yarn to crochet a cabled throw. The yarn is true to the description on the manufacturer. It's easy to crochet, soft and yet sturdy. It's really pleasant to crochet and the cable pattern stands out quite well.
Good and not so good.
I knit greyhound snoods for a greyhound rescue charity. They are sold online, so it’s essential to use good quality yarn, that will be soft for a dog to wear. Paintbox Aran fits the bill perfectly. I’m told the snoods wash well, by hand and by machine and they don't loose their shape. The colours are always as described online and the 5 and 10 packs offer good value for money, as I buy the wool myself. I recommend Paintbox Aran 100%,
