I have just purchased this Aran yarn by Paintbox. I have previously used Paintbox DK and love this yarn . The Aran is soft to the touch and I have purchased this ro knit an Aran jumper. Lovecrafts have good prices and I always buy from this seller as they are very reliable and post out to me very quickly and keep me updated on my purchases

Lovely wool to knit with. Lovely choice of colours. Bought 2 shades Rasberry pink and Bubblegum pink. Very pleased! Fast delivery.

Some of the wools have knots where they have been tied together and some places are thin. However they have a choice of colours and the prices are reasonable.

I bought paintbox yarn to do an aran cardigan for my friend and had enough left to knit a cardigan for my granddaughter. It was so beautiful to knit with i bought more wool to knit a jumper. Its so lovely to knit with ive bought more in a different colour to knit another cardigan for my granddaughter . Its the nicest wool I’ve ever knitted with. All the wool was aran in white for the cardigans blue for the adult male jumper, and pink for my granddaughters aran cardigan.
