Red Heart Super Glow Yarn will launch officially on September 2nd but is already available on the USA side of Yarnspirations. It comes in four fabulous colours that are electrifying by day and electrifying by night.
Starting September 2nd, 2024, this yarn will be sold online through Yarnspirations, Amazon USA, and select retail store websites. Due to the retailers' commitment to other yarns they have already made, you will not find it on a shelf in a store near you. Retailer websites will be announced in September, but I am unsure which sites will have them now.
Limited quantities have been made due to online sales only, as they don't need to fill craft stores across Canada or the USA. Get it while it's hot.

According to the analysis, vibrant colours will be the trend for the next two years, so it makes sense that Yarnspirations brings back these little hush puppies with more technology than ever before.
There are four colours in all. They are as follows:
- Lunar White
- Aurora Yellow
- Spectral Seafam
- Glow Worm Green

Is this yarn gimmicky or novelty? Absolutely. Life is too short always to use the same yarn. Maybe get your kids to play with the yarn that does something special at night. Most people will fall asleep within 15 to 20 minutes before the glow of this yarn fades into the night.
Mary says
Will the glow effect ever run out after so many washes or will it last forever?
Mikey says
I don't know the answer on how many washes it will last. The pigment is right in the yarn colour itself. So I don't know if it's even possible to wash it out.

Aw, I see the notification, I zoom to the site and for Canada shows oos. But I put my email in, hopefully I am just too early to purchase.
