What is the Scheepjes Glow Up Colour Pack and how does it glow in the dark?

This pack contains 10 balls with a photoluminescent effect: the yarn absorbs natural or artificial light and, the more intense and prolonged the exposure, the longer it will continue to glow in the dark afterwards, with the effect lasting for several hours.

This luminous yarn does not need batteries or electricity: simply leave it for a while under a lamp, LED light or in the sun before turning off the lights to see it emit a soft greenish glow. It is the perfect choice for adding a surprising effect to amigurumi, accessories and decorative details that look different by day and by night.

Which colours are included in the Scheepjes Glow Up Colour Pack?

The pack includes 10 different shades combining pastels, soft neutrals and a vibrant touch of lime, designed so that every project can have its own combination of beautiful colours without repeating shades across the ten balls in this colour collection.

The ten colours are Stardust Grey, Aqua Aura, Celestial Mint, Moonbeam Green, Electric Lime, Neon Glow, Solar Flare, Dusky Coral, Blush Nebula and Mystic Bloom. They all glow with the same greenish light in the dark, while retaining their original shade during the day.

How should you care for the Scheepjes Glow Up Colour Pack to keep the glow lasting?

Its glow does not disappear with washing if the manufacturer's care instructions are followed: cold hand wash, with no machine washing, ironing or tumble drying. The more light the yarn receives before it is stored, the more intense the glow will be the next time it is used in the dark.
