Bernat Glow-in-the-Dark Yarn!!!!

[Braxxi]

Got some of this yarn yesterday! It definitely is expensive...

 

My daughter decided I should make a tooth fairy pillow out of it! I'll post a picture whenever I get it done.

Oh you shouldn't have posted a picture. Now I just have to get some. Now what to make. Maybe I will make dd a trick or treat bag. That is a great idea.

Now I must shop for glow and the dark yarn

 

OK so yesterday was the first day of school for my 2 oldest grands and yes I called them both to see how the first day went (they live over 1000 miles away:angry:angry) but I thought a cute quick little something was in order for my new second graders sooooooo.....

 

how about a purple glow in the dark headband for the cheerleader and a set of glow in the dark hacky sacks for my grandson. I will post a pic of the hacky sacks when they are done, but the head band went in the mail this morning.

I saw this at Michaels yesterday. I really, really wanted it! REALLY But, it was four dollars. I couldn't justify it. Next time though, I will. LOL

That is really neat.

 

A lot of uses for kids & smaller items since it is a little expensive based on the yardage. Hats to wear on dark mornings at the bus stop, make a seat cover for their bicycle if they ride at dusk or dark, & those hanging stars from the ceiling would be so cool! Stuffed animals for little ones, glowy footbags, football game wrist bands for teens, cell phone covers or a stringy cheer stick for the game. Arm bands....even a removable antenna cozy for the car so you can find it at night in WM's parking lot Slip it on when you leave your car & slip it off & throw it in the glove box when not in use. Never lose your car again but hope no one steals it, so you might want more than one. I wonder if it only glows after exposed to light? Some of that glowy stuff does that...then fades out after a few min in the dark. I have no idea what makes it glow so it would depend on what they use. I would def check toxicity if making small children something with it.

I saw the yarn when I went to Listowel for the Spinrite Tent sale. It's C$4.99 a ball and it was in the store, so there's no discount. They have also published cute Halloween knitting pattern book with only 1 crochet pattern in it for kids!

I'm guessing it would have to be exposed to light first.

Yes you have to expose the yarn to the light first for it to glow. It really does glow. I have 6 skeins of Glow Worm White and 6 skeins of Light Bright(yellow) up for sale on blujay if anyone is interested.

Oooo the stars would be neat, and i like the tooth fairy pillow idea too.

I grabbed a skein of the Lilac Lustre, could not resist, it is sitting next to me glowing away, I am going to make some stars for my daughter, she loves stars, I am expecting lots of requests from her friends. I think I want one for my car and purse, it's just too cool. I used my coupon at michaels, but I think you can get quite a few stars out of one skein....5 or 6?
