Product Information
When regular knitting and crochet work becomes routine, jazz it up with yarn that pops. Red Heart’s reflective yarn is a level-five weight, bulky, three-ply yarn with one unique feature. Red Heart has spun a reflective thread through the yarn. Knit or crochet warm caps, lustrous scarves, practical ponchos, or cozy sweater jackets with this product. Even a single, thick stripe of this reflective grey thread on a hat, scarf or sweater will provide a dazzling accent to a finished crochet piece. Additionally, your loved ones will be more visible when they are out at night if they are reflective from head to toe with socks, mittens and hats that you knit or crochet from this reflective yarn. It is an especially important safety consideration in the winter when it gets dark early. The reflective thread also makes quite a fashion statement as it lights up under flash photography, giving nighttime selfies an extra sparkle and bringing extra brightness to your face. With soft, thick Red Heart yarn, creating warm winter outerwear is a given, but this reflective grey can also spark some intriguing, sophisticated home decor. Pair it with a non-reflective grey yarn for an appealing afghan or throw to introduce a subtle visual contrast. Pair it with reflective black or aran (white) for sparkle and a more dramatic contrast. For those who are crafty, you can also hang or glue the yarn around mirrors or metallic accessories to lighten up the shadowy areas of a room. It will also change the look of the room throughout the day as the sunlight catches the reflective yarn from different angles. For a softer approach, create a wall hanging in filet crochet, weaving, or a knitted lace or bold pattern. Let this yarn gather and reflect light around the area. You can also crochet or weave an area rug for the floor. Don't limit this yarn to lightening up dark areas, though. Use it alone or with black and aran to create placemats, table runners, or table throws. Create a dramatic, sophisticated contrast with white linens. The reflective thread in this product will dazzle under party lighting. Contrast is also important to an infant's undeveloped eyes. Knit or crochet soft infant toys or clothes using this reflective yarn to contrast sharply with white as well as with bright reds. Like all bulky yarns, this reflective item will work up fast. Use 6-millimeter (10 US) knitting needles or a 6-millimeter (J-10) crochet hook. For knitting, a swatch of 14 stitches and 18 rows should equal a 4-inch by 4-inch square. For crocheting, a swatch of 11 single crochets and 12 rows should also equal a 4-inch by 4-inch square. Red Heart reflective yarn is made in the United States. This product is 85% acrylic and 15% polyester. You can machine wash Red Heart reflective yarn in cold water using the gentle cycle and tumble it dry on the low cycle. The 3.5-ounce ball contains 88 yards of yarn. Enjoy the sparkle of this reflective yarn.Product Identifiers
