Glow in the Dark Yarn 50 g – Neon Green
Code: 378Product detailed description
Neon green is the glow in the dark yarn that stays striking around the clock: by day through its own neon colour, after dark through a yellow-green glow – softer than white, but clearly visible. When a piece should catch the eye in daylight too, this is the right choice.
Striking by day and by night
On a rug it suits anything that is meant to be seen: lettering, lightning bolts, little monsters, sports motifs or a line around the edge. The contrast is strongest on a dark background.
✔ Neon by day ✔ Yellow-green glow at night ✔ Tufting & crochet
How it glows
It glows after charging from ordinary light, with no battery and no UV lamp. By a window it charges in a few seconds even under an overcast sky; the strongest glow lasts about ten minutes and then fades gradually – count on an effect for the evening, not the whole night.
Working with it
In a tufting gun it matches regular tufting yarn – about 3 mm, cut or loop – and is equally suitable for crochet and knitting. A ball holds 50 g and about 60 m. It stands out best as an accent on a dark base of regular yarn.

FAQ
How long does it glow?
Strongest for roughly the first ten minutes after charging, then fading gradually. It depends on how long and how strongly it was charged.
How do I charge it?
Daylight, a lamp or a phone torch. By a window it takes a few seconds even on an overcast day.
How do I care for a finished piece?
We recommend hand-washing in lukewarm water and drying flat. The pigment is not used up by glowing – it recharges again and again.
Can I use it in a tufting gun?
Yes, the yarn is tested for tufting. Choose the number of strands as you would for regular yarn of a similar weight.
Does it glow under a UV lamp?
This is luminous yarn, not UV-reactive yarn – it is not made for blacklight.
Combine it with regular yarn. Glow in the dark yarn works best as an accent on a rug made from regular yarn – see the other colours in the glow in the dark yarn category, our tufting yarn and our tufting guns.
