Tiny Needle Tuesday

 

Since I was pretty much on my own for Christmas day I got some stitching done in front of the TV. Christmas Quaker has a new corner motif in the works. 




Patchwork Hiver has its second border edge started.




Speaking of tiny needles, #16 is finally on the line with its siblings just in time to get packed away. I said I was going to take a break before I started #17 but it's already kitted up and sitting on my nightstand. These things are addicting.




All three of these projects were being worked on in ease after I gifted myself some neck lights. They look crazy but they work like a dream. I don't always need magnification so they just shine a very intense light where I need it. I can't believe I hadn't heard of them before. They really are a game changer for those of us who live in dark houses and who like to play with tiny needles on the shortest days of the year.

  1. I ordered a set of necklights like yours last week from Amazon. They're supposed to arrive on Wednesday. So much for 2 day prime delivery! Ha! I'm looking forward to wearing them, especially on the plane next month and when we're in the car traveling in the dark. I'll be able to keep on knitting! Great minds and all. :-)
    Blessings and hugs,

  7. Your needlework is so lovely. I think I need one of those lights, we have lots of dark corners at this time of year!
