I know I've posted this pattern here before but it seemed like a good quick pattern to try out the glow in the dark floss.

The verdict: this is much easier to deal with than my arch nemesis metallic floss. It does have some downsides in that the ends split pretty easily, and whatever it's made out of is kinda plasticy and doesn't really glide very well.

It wasn't terrible to work with at all though and I'll probably use it for parts of other patterns, but I wouldn't want to make anything big just with this

The picture didn't load. For me at least.

I like the idea of having a hidden message or image that only shows up when the lights go off.
