Description

Rico Ricorumi Glow in the Dark – Amigurumi That Lights Up at Bedtime

Rico Ricorumi Glow in the Dark is a 100% polyester mini ball (25 g / 60 m) from the Ricorumi amigurumi range that charges in daylight and glows softly once the lights go out. Crochet a whole ghost, star or little monster from it, or use it just for eyes, wings and details on a toy made in ordinary yarn — either way the finished piece has a second life after bedtime. Same 25 g mini-ball format as the rest of Ricorumi, so it slots straight into any amigurumi pattern written for the line.

💡 Mix & Match: Pair it with the fluffy Ricorumi Furry Furry Print for toys that are soft to hold and glow in the dark.

Why choose this yarn?

  • It Actually Glows: Leave the finished toy in daylight or under a lamp and it charges on its own — no batteries, no electronics, nothing to break in the wash basket.
  • Made for Amigurumi: Worked tightly, the polyester strand holds its shape well and stuffing stays hidden — exactly what small crocheted toys need.
  • Mini Ball, Right Size: 25 g is enough for a small toy or for the accent parts of a bigger one, so nothing is left over gathering dust.

TIPS & TRICKS

Pro Tip: Glow yarn needs light to charge. Leave the finished star or mobile under a bright lamp or in daylight before bedtime; the green glow is brightest right after lights-out and fades gradually. Use it for the parts you want to shine and a regular DK cotton for the rest.

FAQ

Here are some answers that might help.

About Product

Which yarn can I combine with Rico Ricorumi Glow in the Dark?

Any DK or sport-weight cotton blend works, since Ricorumi Glow in the Dark is a DK yarn with 60 m per 25 g. YarnArt Jeans or Alize Cotton Gold suit the main body of a toy, with the glow yarn for stars, bones, spots or wings. Use the same hook for both so the fabric stays even.

Can I embroider glowing eyes with Ricorumi Glow in the Dark?

Yes, embroidering the eyes with a short length of Ricorumi Glow gives a toy eyes that glow at night, and embroidered eyes are the usual choice for toys meant for children under three instead of plastic safety eyes. Use a blunt yarn needle, work a few satin stitches per eye, and secure the ends inside the head before stuffing.

What hook size is best for amigurumi with Ricorumi Glow in the Dark?

Start with a 3 mm hook for tight amigurumi; the Rico Ricorumi Crochet Hook Set includes it alongside 3.5 and 4 mm. Use 3.5 to 4 mm for flat pieces such as garland stars, where a little drape is fine. If stuffing peeps through a toy's stitches, drop half a size.

What can I make with one ball of Ricorumi Glow in the Dark?

One 60 m ball is enough for a few flat stars or a moon for a mobile, a small ghost, or the glowing details on a larger toy. A palm-sized figure crocheted entirely in glow yarn can use most of a ball, so for anything bigger, plan two or more balls before you start.
