Just don't look up if you don't want to blind an oncoming driver and get in an accident! Those headlamps can be blindingly bright. I prefer one of those lights that hang around your neck and cast light down on your working area. I found some on Amazon.

Hi All, I just have to chime in, because better lighting for knitting is my passion!.. In Sept 2011 Clara did a nice review of our Stitch Light, I want to share with you [Stitch Light][/http://www.knittersreview.com/article_newsletter.asp?article=/newsletter/110901_a.htm]
Let me know if you have any questions about the Stitch Light, I believe it's the best quality light out there, and believe me I have given dozens and dozens a test drive. The Stitch Light might not be for everyone which is why we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, no questions asked. ;-)Buffy |

I have a Stitch Light that I got at Sock Summit (thanks again, Buffy!) and I like it very much. No glaring into people's faces, and the light is positionable right where I want it. It's a great product.

| I pull my headlamp down to my neck when in the car. It is positioned better and then I avoid blinding my driver and oncoming traffic. Love to knit on our drives. |

| A couple years ago I found a pair of "reading" glasses with little led lights in the corners of the frame. I use them in the car at night. They don't blind anyone and I can "see" enough to knit a simple project. |

Did you go to LL Bean in Freeport?? I did, eons and eons ago when it was much smaller (and I was ... a bit ... younger). Great place.
I like your suggestion. I have an REI not too far from home.
