I was making good progress until I got to the golden Lasso of Truth lol! It’s going well so far, but this part may take as long by itself as the rest of the pattern! What have you guys been up to?

It’s so much worse than glow in the dark! Apparently it’s not so evil if you use thread conditioner though, or so I’m told, no way I’m trying it again any time soon to find out.
😬
Wait I just bought some glow in the dark thread, what’s so bad about it?
I wouldn’t say there’s anything bad about it per se, it’s just kinda frustrating to work with. Cut it off shorter than you probably would a normal thread type as this stuff loves to fray/unravel. It gets real poofy real quick when you’re stitching with it. I also found the stuff I was using to feel … odd. Almost like twine or something. Just kind of rough in texture. I was glad I didn’t have to use a lot of it, although there are a couple other patterns I’ve got my eye on that use it pretty cleverly. I would use it again, but only for a pattern I really love. Or if it was minimal in use. And there are apparently several different types. Some are more plastic-y in nature. Some may glow better than others. It’s just an odd duck.
I just looked at the one I got and you’re right it is kind of stiff compared to the regular floss, like almost a plasticy feeling. I haven’t decided what to use it for yet, but thanks for the heads up!
