Novelty yarns are yarns that are designed with a special effect. This can be in the form of a thin reflector strand in the yarn, and you could for example knit or crochet a hat, shirt or vest that would make you more visible in traffic. It can also be a glitter thread that you add to your yarn project to achieve a glittery effect.

The many features of novelty yarn

The great thing about knitting or crocheting with a reflective thread is, that the reflection is not seen in daylight, but only when darkness falls, and therefore it doesn’t affect your various patterns in a negative way. There are many different versions of novelty yarn, so you can choose whether to use reflective yarn, reflector strand or glitter thread. So, you decide how big the effect should be on your crochet or knitting project.

In the long, cold winter months, novelty yarn is close to being your best friend. If you are one of the many people who daily go to work or school while it’s still dark outside, the reflective yarn or even the reflector strand can help you be more visible in traffic. It would also make sense to crochet or knit hats, mittens, sweaters, vests or scarves for your children, so they also are more likely to be to be seen in traffic.

Good for everyday life

As mentioned above, novelty yarn is very suitable for making yours and your children’s movements in traffic safer. Some may think that it's unnecessary to crochet sweaters, vests, scarves, etc.  with reflective yarn for their children, as most children often have a reflector on their jacket. However, this could become covered by a backpack or a scarf and with a crocheted or knitted hat made with reflective yarn, this is no longer a worry.

But, this is not just about traffic safety, so we would also love to tell you a little about our glitter thread. Our glitter thread can help add some extra colour to your day, or just give a little oomph to a slightly boring shirt or blouse. The glitter thread can be found in both gold and silver, so whether you like one or the other, we've got something for you.

What our customers say about Novelty Yarns

Joyce Topping
Moonlight, Novelty Yarns

Ordered some of this yarn and bought it without touching it, which I really like to do when I buy yarn. Was a little nervous doing so, but got some of what I ordered a couple days ago and OH MY GOSH!!! I'm totally IN LOVE with this yarn! I've already started knitting a scarf with some of it and I can't wait to get it all done and start on the next! This yarn is soft and very easy to work with. It knits up beautifully! I had my entire yarn stash stolen out of my garage last month, 4 huge boxes full of all different kinds and colors! So, I'm replenishing my stash slowly but surely and I just love this yarn!!

This yarn is absolutely yummy. I was concerned that the metallic thread would be itchy, but I ordered it anyway. My goodness, I was not disappointed. All my family members have super sensitive skin and don't like things too blingy. This yarn fit the bill. Super soft with just a glow from the metallic thread. It works up easily and doesn't split. I'm making shawls/scarves for my nieces that live in NYC and DC. It will be warm and classy for nights out. I'm so excited to have found Hobbii. I live in the USA and I've gotten bored with local offerings. Thanks hobby

I was gifted 3 balls of this for Mother's Day , my son bought it for me! I picked out the Venus colorway, I love the shifting colors in this yarn! I am teaching myself to knit. I have started on the first ball and love the sparkle that it has! It is not scratchy at all, but very soft and is knitting up unbelievably! I'm making a simple garter stitch shawl and hope to use at least two of the three balls in it. I like really big shawls. The 3rd ball I may crochet into a smaller triangle shawl for a neck wrap. I can't wait to order more in different colors.

I bought this for 2 reasons. I am a novice crocheted so I am not familiar with yarn weights. So I bought this to see just what fine is. To me it much the same as a thread vs a yarn and so now know. The 2 nd reason was the color gradients. It far surpassed my expectations and now I must search for just the right patter, stash until just the perfect pattern comes along. I am leaning toward dragon scales.

I recently ordered and received this yarn. I am currently crocheting a shawl with it. It is my first time working with this yarn weight and it is working up very easy, smoothlyand with no splitting, no knotting. I chose the colorway of Galaxy and it is self striping beautifully. To those who haven't tried this yarn before, I encourage you to try it. Fall in love with it the way I have.

Gorgeous, fine, soft yarn. I ordered Callisto-114, (which has a rose-colored thread running through), Uranus-107 (which has a dark brown metallic thread) and Earth-106 (also a dark brown metallic thread). While you can feel the metallic thread slightly, I think you could make a garment that could be worn next to the skin. My favorite of all of the yarns in my order. Love it!

Margaret Lint

I just had to try this yarn with sparkle! I've been wanting to make some crocodile stitch fingerless gloves for my daughter and this yarn is great. It is a bit finer than I'm used to working with, but not so heavy that the yarn in the palm of the hands will be bulky. There is just enough sparkle to make them interesting but not so much that it detracts from the glove itself.

Delta Rhodes

Love, Love, Love... Ordered Asteroids and Funky Unicorn Dreams this time. The colors in Funky Unicorn Dreams are darker then in the picture but absolutely Stunning. Asteroids color is darker then in the picture but still stunning. I wish there where more colors and the yarn was a worsted weight yarn, so it would be easier to work with because of my arthritis.

Joanne Entwistle
Moonlight, Novelty Yarns

This yarn was a bit finer than I expected, since I was making fingerless gloves that required sportweight yarn. I fell in love with it's softness and gorgeous colour though, so I used two balls together. The effect was exquisite, a tweedy but gradual variation in colour. My gloves I am sure are going to be a hit with the person I am giving them to.
