I have seen some of these on various sites, so I decided to make my own. It can work as an extra safety device when walking in the dark. Since Halloween is upon us, maybe make some for your little ones and help to keep them safe.

IN this instructable, I used a basic solomon stitch. I am not going to waste your time and make and repeat what someone else has already done. You can search one on Instructable.com.
