Where is all the yarn???

I have been using up my extensive yarn stash to crochet blankets for charity and haven't bought any yarn for ages. It's been hard. Now I have a bona fide reason to buy yarn, I can't find the one I want. It is Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran (100% acrylic) and from what I can see only LoveCrafts sell it. Half of their shades are out of stock, including all the ones I am after. Stylecraft won't do. Is this an actual issue at the moment or am I panicking for nothing?

I ran out of yarn on a project in January and the shade I need is out of stock online everywhere. Managed to find some in the Range last week but still out of stock in Wool Warehouse, LoveCrafts etc.

There’s loads of different brands and sometimes popular colours are out of stock. Even more so when various sites have sales.

Oh and set up an email alert for the colours you want. Over the past don’t know how many years this has been the only way I’ve managed to get certain colours.
Also have a look on EBay and FB selling pages although be careful on FB with scammers and never send them money through friends and family on PayPal!!

I've set up the alert. The wait is unbearable (joking... ish).
