super easy to stitch with and creates a wonderful glow. a little stiffer than regular DMC

from United States on 12/19/2025 - Great quality
Great quality and price. so happy thanks!

from United States on 10/17/2025
I don’t mind using this but I find it likes to split. I prefer a Krienik petite braid but you can’t find it right now.

from United States on 02/19/2025
Such a fun thread to cross stitch with, it really glows in the dark!

from United States on 02/11/2025 - Glow in the dark.
Can’t wait to use this, but need to finish the one I’m working on.

from United States on 11/18/2023 - it glows
used in Halloween project, happy with this floss

from United States on 11/15/2023 - Just Plain Cool
There is no other way to describe Light Effects Glow in the Dark Floss: it's just plain cool. The glow is surprisingly bright once exposed to light, an unusual addition to my cross stitch. It glows white, and I'm sufficiently impressed to want to try the other colors it is available in. I've made gifts for friends, but didn't mention the light effects. I'm going to let them discover this for themselves. It's not difficult to use, it does shred a bit, but nothing like the metallics, so I enjoyed working with it. Give it a try. I guarentee you won't be disappointed.

from United States on 10/28/2023 - Great Floss
DMC is one of the best.

from United States on 10/23/2023 - Use a needle with a large eye
I am excited to see the glow in the dark effects (can't tell yet), but I find it hard to stitch with. This does not surprise me because most threads like this are. The only thing that frustrates me is that it keeps unthreading from the needle. One strand doubled up turns into 4 fine strands which slip out of the needle easily and are difficult to re-thread.

from United States on 06/13/2022 - Let it Glow
Used this thread in a piece I sent my finisher. Forgot to tell her it glowed in the dark. Was she surprised when she turned out the lights for the night and saw a glow on her workbench.

from Canada on 11/03/2021 - Cool effect!
This really does glow in the dark! It can be a bit difficult to stitch with if one has dry skin (will snag). Requires a bit of patience but is worth it.

from United States on 08/24/2020 - Perfect
Ordered for a Halloween project and it works great. Consistency is different than other 6-strand floss, takes time to adjust.

from United States on 07/14/2020
This is a fun thread to stitch with. It has a different consistency than other DMC threads; at first it takes a little time to get used to, but so long as I'm careful, it's quite easy to use.

from United States on 03/23/2020 - Needed for a Halloween Afghan
123Stitch was out when I was ready to order and the Etsy stores who had a little bit of stock, were pricey! BUT, 123Stitch got me the exact amount I needed and I mean it was fast!! Pricing is great, too! Thank you, 123Stitch! You're my favorite online store!

from on 11/21/2019 - Cool!
This really does glow well. It glides through the fabric well but it does not lie as evenly as regular cotton floss and splits easily. Stitches do not look as neat as I would like, but the glow factor is pretty cool! Used for a moon!

from United States on 10/09/2019 - Dmc light effects!
Love love love my favorite is the glow n the dark

from United States on 04/28/2019 - Glow In The Dark Thread
Have not used it for a project yet but it does glow really well.

from United States on 11/20/2018 - Glow in the dark dmc
Acts just like regular dmc floss love it, the glow is amazing. Will be getting more

from United States on 11/18/2017 - Dazzle
Put a little spooky in your Halloween stitching. I use this for my ghosts.

from United States on 12/26/2016 - Super cool
I really like it, easy to work and awesome results!

from United States on 01/29/2016 - Beautiful finish but....
The thread is a little hard to work with and definitely hard to thread. I do love the glow in the dark effect!

from United States on 09/27/2015 - Great!
Can't wait to use it!

from United States on 09/20/2015 - Fuzzy
It does glow in the dark, but is quite fuzzy compared to some other flosses. Does what it is supposed to.

from United States on 09/18/2015 - Just what I wanted at a great price!
I was working on an art piece that included a glow-in-the-dark element. I bought a 6-pack of DMC thread from another source but ran out before finishing the project. Then I found 123 Stitch, which sent the thread pronto, and all was well. One thing to know is that this floss's strands want to untwist. That wasn't important to my project, but it might be to others'.

from United States on 09/14/2015 - Glow floss is cool, but tricky
The floss arrived in perfect condition. A note if you're planning to use it it is harder to work with. It's stretchier than normal floss and tangles/snarls very easily, both of which make things more difficult than normal. But it glows very well and made a cool effect on my project!

from United States on 03/31/2015 - Glowing
I am using this product for the moon in the Nighttime Butterfly pattern. It really does glow in the dark. I'm doing this pattern for my 4 year old grandniece and I am excited to hear what she will think. I use seventh heaven with and it does help with the fraying and the snagging. You do have to be careful with it. It does snag easily but if you have patience it will add interest to your pattern.

from United States on 02/06/2015 - Glow in the Dark Thread
It did not work for my purposes. I wanted to outline a few objects in the piece I was stitching. The outlines did NOT glow in the dark. Maybe you need to fill in a bigger area for it to glow for outlining purposes it did not work. It was a total waste for my needs.

from United States on 10/28/2014 - Halloween Can Glow in the Dark!
This flos is marvelous for Halloween cross stitch. It glows in the dark and is amazing for the spooky stuff, such as ghosts and skulls! Oooooo!

from United States on 10/20/2014 - Glow in the dark threads
Love them and the effect...

from United States on 09/23/2014 - Glow in the Dark Floss
I used this floss in my punchneedle project, and while it is a softer floss than the 100 cotton floss, the glow in the dark effect is wonderful! Very happy with my Halloween witch's GITD hair, eye, and teeth.
