What is life without colour? Bland, sad, and a little bit dreary. So, we say, never shy away from colourful yarns, because colour and life go hand-in-hand. If you’re lacking pinks, blues, purples, and rainbow hues in your stash then you’re in luck because we’re here to brighten up your day! It’s no secret that we’re mega fans of competitions, so we’re offering you the chance to design your very own Paintbox Simply DK colour pack and win it all!
