Here is a video tutorial to help walk you through this pattern:

To get the best glow, set the yarn in direct sunlight for about 20 mins (or longer). I believe it also works well under a blacklight or UV light.

Stitch these glow ghosties onto trick-or-treat tote bags, crochet hats, crochet squares, blankets, and more!
