i'm so happy to be done knitting this sweater because yay sweater, yay fruits of my labor! but also because as someone who knits almost exclusively at night, black yarn was the wrong choice

@molly0xfff I know somebody who knits with a headlamp on.
@bamfingle I put one on when I was picking up stitches for the neckline!
@molly0xfff I also do crafts stuff at night, and I am using these little solar lamps to let me see what I doing :'D actually I am schlepping mine around my place like Linus does his blanket

@molly0xfff whatever aesthetic choices we make in our hobbies, we rarely consider them in the light of practicality 😆
@molly0xfff ever seen those little lamps you wear around your neck? was a game changer for me; now I see properly what I am doing/knitting, and no one has to spend the evening under a bright work lamp anymore. Plus is lamp color in pink so it cannot easily hide in a corner 🙃
