Knitting Neck Light

Patricia H.USA

Finally see my dark yarn

I've been knitting a black cardigan for a year because I could only work on it in daylight. Two evenings with this and I'm on the second sleeve.

Sue W.UK

Bought one for me and one for my sister. We both crochet in the evenings and we both love them.

Kathy D.USA

Doesn't pull on my neck

I was worried it would pull on my neck. It doesn't. I wear it for two hours and take it off only because I'm done.

Janet O.Canada

Great for movie night. The light only hits my hands and nobody complains about a lamp anymore.

Rosemary B.Australia

Great for lace

I can count my yarn overs again in the evening. The cool light setting is the one for me.

Debbie F.USA

Took it camping. Crocheted by the fire after dark and it worked great.

Ann M.New Zealand

Wish I'd found it sooner

I've tried clip lights and a floor lamp. This is the first thing that doesn't leave my hands in shadow.

Gloria S.USA

I crochet in a dark corner of the living room. Now I don't have to drag a lamp over every night.

Maureen K.UK

Gift for my mum

Got this for my mum, who is 78 and still knits every day. She says she can see her stitches like it's daytime.

Teresa V.USA

Very good

Bright and easy to aim. It took me a few tries to learn the buttons, but now it's second nature.

Carol A.Canada

Navy socks at night used to be impossible. Not anymore.

Lynn P.USA

My new knitting buddy

It lives in my project bag. Car, waiting rooms, my sister's dark living room. It goes everywhere.

Wendy J.Australia

I do cross-stitch, not knitting, and it's just as good. The light lands right on the fabric.

Diane R.USA

Bought the 3-pack for my knitting group's Christmas swap. Big hit.

Joyce E.UK

Love the lavender

Pretty colour, soft on the neck, and the warm light feels cosy late at night.

Barb N.USA

Took it on a long flight. Knitted for 4 hours and the man next to me slept the whole time.

Frances G.Canada

Good light

Does what it says. I'd love it a bit brighter on the warm setting, but on cool it's great for dark yarn.

Pam C.USA

Power went out during a storm and I kept going like nothing happened.

Elaine T.New Zealand

Easy to use

Hang it on, press the button, bend the arms. That's it. No cords on the couch.

Marilyn H.USA

I crochet amigurumi with black yarn a lot. This made it so much easier to find my stitches.

Sandra L.UK

My eyes aren't what they used to be. With this I can knit in the evening again without giving up after ten minutes.

Cheryl B.USA

Good in the car

I knit in the passenger seat on long drives. The light stays on my lap and nowhere near the windshield.

Joan W.Australia

Fine, but

It works, but I needed to bend the arms a lot to get the light just right. Once set, it's good.

Nancy M.USA

Bought two, one for me and one for my daughter who just learned to crochet. She uses hers every night.

Bev S.Canada

Brilliant

Pink is so cute, and both arms stay right where I bend them.

Kay F.USA

I knit at my kid's swim lessons in a dim gallery. Now I can count my rows there.

Irene D.UK

Light enough to wear all evening. I forget it's there.

Gail R.USA

So happy

I have a dark green blanket I'd put away for months. It's almost done now.

Ferry crossing project

Knitted a navy beanie on the ferry across Cook Strait. Dark, rough crossing, still got it done.

Raffle hit

Bought three for my knitting circle's raffle. All three winners were thrilled.

My mum is 84 and still knits for the church fair. She's thrilled with the lavender.

Brilliant on our caravan holiday. I knitted outside after dark.

Used it day one

It came on a Thursday and I wore it that same night. It hasn't gone back in the box.

Crochet group favourite

Showed it at my Thursday crochet group. Four of them ordered one that night.

My wife and I winter up north where it's dark early. She knits all evening with this now.

Good, small gripe

The band rubs a bit over my fleece zip-up. Over a regular shirt, no problem.

Skeptic turned fan

Tried it with low hopes. Now I own two.

No more lamp switch

I do a few rows in bed before I sleep. When I'm done I press the button and set it on the nightstand. No getting up to turn off a lamp.

Learning to crochet at 68 with my granddaughter. We each wear one, she has mint and I have blue.

I didn't think I needed it. Then I couldn't put it down.

So handy

It hangs on a hook by my chair, ready to go every night.

Arms took some work

It took me a few nights to bend the arms where I wanted. Now they stay put and the light sits right on my needles.

Finally works in bed

Bed is where I knit most. This is the first light that works there for me.

Lovely mint colour. My favourite thing I've bought this year.

Cat approved

The narrow beam is the best part. My cat sleeps next to me and the light doesn't bother her.

On the train home it's dark by half four in winter. I knit the whole way.

Two weeks with it and I've finished a cowl I started in March.

Happy wife

My wife saw the ad and asked for it for her birthday. She says it's the best gift I've given her in years. I'll take it.

Christening sampler

I'm stitching a sampler for my granddaughter's christening. The tiny letters are clear now.

Took a bit over two weeks to get to Dunedin. Good light though.

Game night knitting

I knit through the whole big game. No lamp, and nobody yelling that I'm in the way.

I did not expect to like it this much. It just works.

Lovely light, though my blue one is a touch darker than the photo.

Needlepoint at night

Needlepoint with a dark wool background is tough. Now I can see each hole I need.

We moved to a smaller place with worse lighting. This fixed it for my knitting.

Learned to knit at 60

Picked up knitting when I retired. At the cottage the only lamp is across the room, so this does the job.

Fiddly at first

The buttons confused me for a while. My daughter showed me and now it's okay. Light is good.

I bought the 2-pack for me and my sister. We do a crochet video call on Sunday nights, both wearing them.

My grandkids think it's a spaceship necklace. I think it's the best knitting gadget I own.

My husband fell asleep during the cricket. I kept crocheting in the dark lounge.

We travel in an RV and the lights inside are dim. This lives on the hook by the door now.

Wedding pillowcase

I'm embroidering a pillowcase for my granddaughter's wedding. Tiny French knots are easy to see now, even late.

Bought one for my mom for Mother's Day. She calls me every night to tell me what she's knitting.

I crochet on the ferry to the island. The cabin is dim and my hook isn't.

Arms need patience

Both arms needed some bending before the lights hit my hands. Once they did, I loved it.

My grandson is 15 and only wears black. Thanks to this light, his jumper is nearly done.

It lights my work and not the whole room. My husband reads beside me in peace.

Brown and rust in a Fair Isle yoke used to look the same after dark. Now I can tell them apart.

For my granddaughter

My granddaughter is 12 and learning to crochet. I gave her the pink one and she thinks it's very cool.

Black cat hat

Knitting a black cat hat for Halloween. Black on black at night, and it was done in a week.

The ceiling light in my sewing room is behind me. Now I don't sit in my own shadow.

Good gift, slow shipping

Bought it for my mother. It took about two weeks to come, but she loves it.

Read the free e-book on my phone. Nice touch.

One each

We both knit, so we got the 2-pack, blue for me and lavender for her.

Lives on my nightstand

It sits on my nightstand, charging with the cable it came with.

Bought two, then came back for one more for my daughter-in-law.

Ripping back is easier

Frogging is less painful when I can see where the mistake is. I don't rip back too far anymore.

Black Aida, no problem

Black Aida cloth used to be daytime only. Not anymore.

Chart and stitches

I can read my chart and see my stitches with one light. That's new for me.

Getting the arms bent right took a bit of fiddling. Now it's perfect for my embroidery.

Done by first snow

Dark teal cardigan. Started in October, done by the first snow.

Lovely lavender

The lavender is such a pretty colour. Soft on my neck too.

One for my wife, one for her best mate. Both very happy with the 2-pack.

Bought it on a whim after seeing it on Facebook. Glad I did.

Keeps me going

I'm slower now, but I still knit every night. This helps me keep going.

Three sisters

Three lights, three sisters. We all knit when we visit each other.

Matching on video calls

Treated myself to blue after my daughter got the pink. Now we match on our calls.

My knitting group meets at a coffee shop with mood lighting. Not a problem now.

The buttons were fiddly at first and I kept hitting the wrong one. A week in, I don't even look.

Slow to arrive

Shipping took about two weeks and I almost forgot I'd ordered it. The light itself is nice.

Socks for hubby

Forest green socks for my husband, all done in the evenings.

Took about two weeks to reach Perth. Good light, worth the wait.

Mohair friendly

Mohair is fuzzy and hides stitches. This helps me see through the halo.

Best gift I got

My kids got me the 3-pack in different colors. I keep one in each project bag.

Manitoba winters

Long winter nights in Manitoba. I've knit three toques since it came.

Reading in bed

I read in bed with it while my husband's asleep. Only my book gets the light.

Had mine three months. Charged with the cable, used most nights, no fuss.

Merci, very good

My English is not the best, but this light is very good. I crochet every night now.

Light, soft, and it stays put. I knit in my rocking chair every evening.

Better than firelight

Firelight looks pretty, but you can't knit by it. I sit by the fireplace with this on instead.

The cool setting is my pick for anything dark. Warm is for reading in bed.

Calm warm light

The warm light feels calm and doesn't light up the whole bedroom.

Hubby bought it for me. He was tired of hearing me say I can't see my stitches.

Great for travel

It fits in my carry-on with room to spare. In the hotel I used it so I wouldn't wake my roommate.

Nights on the porch

I knit on the back porch in summer. It's dark by nine and I just keep going.

White was my first pick. Next I want lavender for my granddaughter.

Snug over sweaters

It's a little snug when I wear a thick turtleneck. Over a T-shirt it's fine and the light is great.

Summer night knitting

Too hot for a lamp in summer. This little light is all I need.

Dark grey jumper for my husband. Knitted most of it in the evenings this month.

Turns out it's my favorite reading light too. I use it for paperbacks once my knitting is put away.

Lovely gift

Sent one to my friend in Cornwall. She said it arrived well packed and she uses it every night.

Duplicate stitch help

Duplicate stitch on a dark sweater is tricky. With this light I could follow the chart.

Bus knitting

The overhead light on the bus to my sister's was broken. Didn't matter, I had my own.

Not just for knitters

I do needlepoint, which my mates find funny. This light is spot on for the canvas.

Black chenille scarf

Black chenille is hard to see in any light. With this on, I finished a whole scarf for my son.

Card night upgrade

Friday nights we play cards and knit in my friend's dark kitchen. Now we each have one.

Got the 2-pack. White for me, pink for my sister in Ohio. She sent me a selfie wearing it the next day.

Snowed in

Two days snowed in and I finished a pair of mittens. The rest of the room stayed dark and quiet.

Train knitting

Granny squares on the train to Toronto. Nobody needed the overhead light on.

Lavender for me and blue for my husband, who reads with his.

It charges off my laptop with the cable. Handy when I'm travelling.

Warm could be brighter

I love the warm color but wish it were brighter. I end up on neutral most nights. It does its job.

Blue looks sharp

Got the blue one. It looks nicer in person than online.

Warm setting is soft

Pretty warm light, but I'd like it brighter. I use the cool one for my dark wool.

My blanket is a deep plum. I used to stop when the sun went down. Now I go until bedtime.

Perfect for socks

Tiny needles, dark sock yarn, late at night. All three used to be a problem.

Love the pink. It looks sweet and it's soft on my neck.

Dark denim yarn

Denim blue cotton for a market bag looked black in the evening. Now I can see every stitch.

I'm 74 and new to crochet. This made learning easier at night, when I finally have time.

Navy and cream blanket

Started a blanket in January in navy and cream. Most of it's been done after tea with this on.

I quilt by hand and the light falls right on my thimble.

Hand quilting in the evenings. My stitches are neater now that I can see them.

Saturday evening rugby, my grandson playing. The floodlights don't reach the stands, but I crochet anyway.

I gave my wife this for her birthday. She crochets in front of the telly every night and says it's brilliant.

The cool light makes my navy look navy and not black.

Mint is my favourite colour and it looks just like the photo.

Drive-in nights

At the drive-in I crochet with this on. It doesn't bother the screen or anyone else.

Mint is my color

The mint matches my favorite knitting bag. Silly maybe, but it makes me smile.

Good quality for the price. I was surprised.

Knitting at the ballpark

My grandson's baseball games run late. I sit in the stands with sock yarn and this light, and I still catch every play.

My granddaughter calls it my glowing necklace. She wants one for her coloring books now.

Fixing a dropped stitch at night used to mean waiting until morning. Now I just fix it.

Dark linen, no worries

Cross-stitch on dark linen is no longer a daytime job.

I liked The Evening Stitcher's Handbook more than I thought I would. Printed a couple of pages for my bag.

A free e-book came with it. I printed one page and stuck it on my fridge.

Late nights with a baby blanket on a deadline. This got me there in time.

Bit snug

Fits a little tight over a chunky roll-neck. Fine otherwise.

Bought it for my wife

She crochets every night while I watch the news. I got her the mint one and she hasn't taken it off since.

Cool light, dark wool

My favourite part is the cool light on dark wool. Makes all the difference.

My go-to light

I have a big lamp with a magnifier and haven't touched it since this came.

Before-bed rows

So handy for a quick few rows before bed.

Good light. The arms were stiff at first, so I worked them a bit to get the bend I like.

Short and sweet: I knit more now.

My knitting chair is by the window. Great by day, useless at night, until now.

Hat for the grandbaby

I took it to the hospital when my grandbaby was born. Knit her a hat in the dim family room while we waited.

So comfy around my neck. I knit in my armchair every night now.

Delivery took about two weeks to Nova Scotia. Worth the wait, but I'd like it faster.

Crochet in the car while my husband drives? Yes, every Sunday on the way to his mother's.

I'm the knitter on the early bus in Calgary. Dark winter mornings, no problem.

Charging is easy

I charge it with the cable from the box while I make my coffee. Then I don't think about it.

Purple hat, dark room, no problem.

Road trip win

We drove 600 miles to see the grandkids. From the passenger seat I finished two dishcloths after dark.

Not for me

I couldn't get the arms quite right, and the band felt snug with my coat collar. My wife likes it, so she has it now.

So comfortable

Soft on my neck. I knit with it over my nightgown and it feels like nothing.

Yes, men knit

I'm working on a gray hat in my recliner. This is the only light I need over there.

Mum's 80th

For my mum's 80th I gave her this. She rang to say it was the best present she got.

We knit and talk at book club, and the host only lights candles. Mine was the only work I could see.

Took close to two weeks to get here. Good light though, and I like the blue.

Still like it

Mine is lavender, a touch more gray than the photo. I still like it a lot.

Mint is lovely

The mint colour is fresh and pretty. My sister wants one too.

Blue one for me. Looks great, works great.

Nice free e-book

The e-book was a nice surprise. I read it on my tablet the first night.

My quilting group meets in a church basement with poor lights. Now everyone asks where I got mine.

The buttons took some getting used to. Now I'd not be without it.

Glad I tried it

I thought it was a gimmick. It's not. I use it every single night.

Color a bit off

The blue is a bit lighter than in the photo. Still a good light and it does what I wanted.

My mom lives in a care home now. She knits in her room in the evening and loves it.

Got the 2-pack for my wife and her sister. They crochet together on the verandah after dark.

Good gift

Gave the pink one to my church friend for her 70th. She put it on right out of the gift bag.

I knit in the school pickup line. Winter afternoons get dark early.

Darning socks in the evening is easier now. I can see the hole and the yarn.

Expected more

Delivery took over two weeks and the pink is paler than the photo. The light itself is fine.

Retired and knitting

I took up knitting last year. I use it in the tent on fishing trips, after the sun goes down.

Good with a hoop

I keep my hoop in my lap and the light lands right in the middle. No shadow from my hands.

Red-eye to Seattle. Lights off in the cabin, and my sock kept growing.

Evenings in the conservatory are lovely again. I crochet out there until bedtime.

Bought two in the spring. Bought two more for Christmas.

Arms a bit stiff

The arms took some effort to bend at first. They've loosened up and stay where I put them now.

Black ribbing at night used to be guesswork. Knit or purl? Now I can tell.

Christmas presents for my three sisters, sorted. We're all hooked now.

Quilting in my lap

I hand-quilt a lap quilt in front of the TV. The light hits the needle, not the screen.

Holiday socks

Took it on the plane to Spain. Knitted my holiday socks in the dark cabin.

Dark red floss on a navy dish towel. I can tell my stitches from the fabric now.

Knitted a dark plum cardigan for winter, mostly at night with this.

The lights at our bach are dim. This was the first thing I packed.

Bought three. One for me, one for my best friend, and one for the neighbor who taught me to knit 40 years ago.

I embroider tea towels for the school fair. Now I can do them at night.

Farm drives

Long dark drive out to the farm. I knit in the passenger seat and got heaps of rows done.

Tricky buttons

I found the buttons tricky and the arms took a while to set. Good light once you figure it out.

Pretty lavender

The color is soft and just like the picture. I wear it over my robe most nights.

Warm light for the evening, cool light when I'm on navy. I switch back and forth all the time.

Handy, two niggles

The band is snug over my thick dressing gown collar, and the warm light is softer than I'd like. Otherwise it's handy.

Purple mohair, evening, no guessing.

At 81 I didn't think I'd still be knitting after supper. My daughter bought me this and here I am.

I work nights and knit on my break in a dim break room. Little light, big help.

It took about two weeks to get to Leeds. Good light, and my mum's very pleased with it.

Love that it charges by USB. It plugs into the same block as my phone.

I was going to buy a new lamp. Glad I got this instead, and it comes with me.

I knit beanies for the newborns at our hospital. The black and navy ones for the dads are easy now.

Couch spot saved

My favorite end of the couch is far from the lamp. I don't have to fight my husband for the other end anymore.

Great for bobbles

Bobbles and popcorn stitches in a dark blanket. I can see what I'm doing.

Wish the warm light had a bit more punch. On neutral it's great.

Teal and navy stripes on a sweater for my husband. I can finally see where one stripe ends.

Dorm room squares

Granny squares in navy and black for my son's dorm room. I can see every round.

Dark burgundy sweater, almost done. I wouldn't have got this far without it.

Our cabin has no power. I knit there by this light after dark.

Great for binding

I hand-sew quilt bindings at night. The beam stays on the edge I'm working and nowhere else.

Cross-stitch at night

I stitch on 18 count fabric and the holes are tiny. Evening stitching is possible again.

Night owl approved

Midnight is my best knitting time. Now my light doesn't wake the house.

A blanket a week

I crochet baby blankets for church. Now that I can work at night, I make one a week.

Dark wool sorted

Black Aran wool at night was hopeless. Now I can follow my cables.

Neutral is my pick

My favourite is the neutral light. Not too yellow, not too blue.

Ornament season

I cross-stitch Christmas ornaments every year. My wife got me this and I use it every night in December.

Hockey jacket crest

Embroidering a crest on my grandson's hockey jacket. Easy now, even after supper.

I do Brazilian embroidery with shiny rayon thread. At night the shine used to hide my stitches, but not with this.

Every night after the dishes, I put it on and pick up my crochet. It's part of the routine now.

My first sweater

Finished my first sweater ever! A lot of it was done after dark with this.

I crochet at the hockey rink while my grandson practises. Cold hands, but at least I can see.
