Review summary

Most reviewers praise the colours, which blend well together in the pack. Many also say the yarn is soft and easy to knit or crochet, and a few mention good value. Complaints are uncommon: one reviewer says the pack was not delivered as a yarn pack, and another finds it less soft than yarns they usually buy.

Fast delivery

Perfect colour combinations for projects. The yarn is inexpensive and surprisingly soft considering the price point. Ideal for items which need to be machine washable, the yarn is easy to knit with and doesn't split or cause any issues. I will certainly choose Paintbox yarns again

Why I will buy again

Yarn crochets up beautifully. Lies flat along the rows. Handles wonderfully and keeps it tension and shape, even after undoing, so a real bonus. The pattern was clear and easy to follow and I loved the end results. Will look out for this designer again

Perfect

It knits beautifully. I had a couple of patterns that I wanted to make for about 20 years. One is a Charlie Chaplain jumper that needed to be in shades of black,white and grey, like an old movie. Every time I started it it either looked drab, or very stark. These Paint box yarns were perfect in shades and colour ranges. The back is complete and the front is well on the way.

The yarn crocheted easily with very little splitting. An excellent range of colours has added to the colour range of my crocheted blanket of flowers.

Great yarn, great service

I am impressed with the Paintbox yarn. The colors are beautiful and while it’s nit quite as soft as the yarns I usually buy, it is still a nice, soft yarn suitable for either afghans or wearables.
