SCHEEPJES - Little Darling Colour Pack

This Glow Up Colour Pack contains 10 mini balls of 20 grams each, from the Scheepjes Glow Up collection. All balls feature a unique glow-in-the-dark effect after being exposed to natural or artificial light.

Each ball is approximately 44 metres long and made from 100% polyester with photoluminescent pigment, allowing them to emit a gentle glow in the dark.

The Glow Up Colour Pack offers a vibrant selection of 10 bright solid colours covering the full rainbow spectrum. These tones have been carefully chosen to provide maximum brightness and contrast both in light and in darkness:

🌈 Pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and more. Each colour glows in a shade close to the original, adding a unique and magical effect to your projects.

The yarns in the Glow Up range are made with a photoluminescent additive that absorbs light (natural or artificial) and then emits it in darkness as a soft glow.

• ▷ No batteries or electricity required.
• ▷ The longer and more intense the light exposure, the longer the glow lasts.
• ▷ The effect is visible in total or low light darkness.

This effect is non-toxic, safe and washable, making it a fun choice for both children and adults.

The Glow Up Colour Pack is designed to spark creativity. It's perfect for:

• ▷ Amigurumi and toys that glow at night.
• ▷ Children’s accessories like backpacks, keyrings or room décor.
• ▷ Safety features like reflective accents on hats, scarves, vests or wristbands.
• ▷ Party decorations, Halloween or space-themed items.
• ▷ Letters, borders and decorative details in larger projects.

The mini balls allow you to experiment with colour and light without needing to purchase large quantities.

✅ Yes, Scheepjes Glow Up is certified with OEKO-TEX Standard 100, ensuring it is free from harmful substances and suitable for use in items for children.

Moreover, the glow it emits is soft, non-heating and radiation-free, making it completely safe for toys or accessories for little ones.

Scheepjes recommends using 5 mm needles for comfortable crafting and to achieve a soft yet firm texture. However, you can adjust depending on your project and preferred tension:

• ▷ 5 mm: looser texture, ideal for large amigurumi or decorations.
• ▷ 4.5 mm: tighter stitches, better for borders, lettering or smaller accessories.

✅ Absolutely! Glow Up pairs wonderfully with:

• ▷ Scheepjes Catona, Cahlista or Softfun to add luminous details to cotton-based projects.
• ▷ Acrylic or blended yarns for garments you want to personalise or make more playful.
• ▷ Multicolour projects, as its DK weight makes it compatible with many popular yarns.

You can also use it as a secondary or decorative yarn in wool or cotton pieces.

No. The glow does not wash out as long as you follow these guidelines:

• ▷ Machine wash at max. 30 °C on a gentle cycle.
• ▷ Do not bleach.
• ▷ Avoid prolonged direct sunlight while drying.
• ▷ Do not iron.

The glow effect may weaken slightly over time if the yarn is heavily exposed to sunlight for days, but under normal conditions, it remains strong even after multiple uses and washes.

✅ Absolutely! It makes a brilliant gift for:

• ▷ Creative children who enjoy arts and crafts.
• ▷ Crochet lovers looking to try something new and exciting.
• ▷ Unique DIY projects, especially for occasions like Halloween or Christmas.
• ▷ Teachers and workshop leaders looking for fun educational materials.

Plus, its compact format makes it easy to wrap and transport.

The Glow Up Colour Pack contains:

• ▷ 10 balls of 20 g each
• ▷ Each ball has approx. 44 metres of yarn
• ▷ In total, the pack includes 200 grams and 440 metres of glowing yarn

That’s plenty to experiment with, decorate, test colour combinations, or create several small projects or luminous details in larger ones.
