Get to Know DIY Glow Yarns

Yes, it does what it says, this yarn GLOWS. Literally. Make a multitude of projects that can be seen with the lights on or off. All you need to do is ‘charge’ up your projects under direct light, then watch them glow in the dark! The longer the yarn is exposed to light and the more direct the source, the stronger and longer your glow in the dark experience lasts.

Fun Facts

All DIY Glow yarns need to be charged in light (natural or artificial) for a few hours to get it to its full glow potential. Remember to ‘charge it’ before you ‘glow for it’ each time.

Originally introduced in 2019, DIY Glow yarn has grown into a glowing success! When in stock, it tends to sell out very quickly. So if you see it, grab it, and give it a try!

Not just for Halloween decorations, DIY Glow has been used for amigurumis, shawls, pillows, and many more types of projects - anywhere you want to add a bit of fun!

Perfect yarn for summer festival/concert garments and accessories - glow into the night!

Our DIY Glow Chenille is a little stiffer than regular chenille, but it has the same look as regular chenille and it glows! Tip: We suggest giving the finished item a gentle soak in lukewarm water, rolling it in a towel to squeeze most of the water out, and popping it in the dryer for 10-15 minutes to fluff it up.

Our original DIY Glow only comes in the natural color, but DIY Glow Chenille comes in a few different colors. However, all colors glow the yellow/green glow seen in pictures.
