Want to embed the WS2812 LEDs into your clothing? We have a thing for that! The LilyPad Pixel Board is the e-
textile version of the WS2812 Breakout. The functionality and pinouts are exactly the same, though the pins are in
slightly different location to make threaded traces easier.
Rather than solder these boards, you can use conductive thread to connect them to other LilyPad boards. You can
control individual LEDs, or chain them together to create a multitude of colors on your clothing. The examples in
this tutorial use the WS2812 Breakout, but you can substitute the LilyPad Pixel for any of the breakout boards.
For more information on the LilyPad Pixel Board, check out this other tutorial.
