Kreinik's Reflective Yarn adds a new dimension to traditional stitches. When the camera flashes, the Reflective Yarn stitches will light up. [Note: the Trinkets perforated paper shape is no longer available. You can still stitch this design on 18-count Aida, or on 18-count perforated paper, then cut or framed in a circle. If stitching on 14-count, the design will be larger.]
