Fan Favorite Winner: Stephanie P. of @crochetverse

Second Place: Lacie M. of @crochetinthesky

Lacie submitted multiple glowing projects for this contest, but her DIY Glow Chenille™ frog hopped straight into our hearts!

The softness of the yarn, combined with the way it glows, makes this project absolutely magical.

“What a fun way to use this amazing yarn. So many of us (creators) are following each other now and making new friends!”

Grand Prize Winner – $2,500: Vanessa A. of @loveplantsandcrochet

Vanessa’s glowing crochet astronaut, made with DIY Glow Cozy™ Yarn truly took this contest to another level.

What makes this win even more special? Vanessa only started crocheting in November 2024! Their creativity and skill in crafting such a detailed and eye-catching piece in just a few months is nothing short of inspiring.

“I can’t express how excited I am about being selected as 1st place winner, especially because I’m still new at crocheting. I made the astronaut to gift it to a dear friend’s son who loves space and I came up with the idea of adding some glow in the dark details to make it more fun. 

I then saw the opportunity to showcase this project in the Show us your glow contest but never imagined I could win, after looking at all the great artwork from experienced crocheters. It makes me proud of myself and also gives me the confidence and motivation to do more challenging projects!!”
