Don't let the small size of this fun guy fool you - when you catch him in the light of a flashlight or car headlight, the reflective yarn makes a bright FLASH to say, "There's a person here, drive safely!" Watching these dangle from underneath a bike saddle, atop a backpack, or even from the ankle cuff of a skate boot - these catch your eye with their movement and give you one more element to be noticed, be seen and be safe!
As someone with lots of friends and loved ones who like to be outdoors at night - rollerblading, running, cycling and more - I am saddened and heartbroken by how often people are being seriously hurt or even killed by drivers not seeing them. While this tiny mushroom CANNOT replace your other crucial safety gear including helmets, bike lights and plastic reflectors - he is lightweight, adorable and better than nothing. (And when it comes to safety, anything is better than nothing!!)
Each shroom is approximately 2.5” long/tall, about 1.5" wide, and comes with a fixed 3” loop for hanging. Fully crocheted by hand, with love and good intentions, by yours truly.
Made of reflective yarn that is 88% acrylic, 12% polyester, in Summit White for the stem and a cap in Atomic Pink, Neptune Green, Volt Yellow or Iron Grey.
