KC Designers has introduced a new product, a neck hung light. It is a flexible, bendable U shape with lights on each end that are rechargeable through a charging cord, probably to a USB port in a computer (although the information doesn't say). These have three color modes so you can use a brighter or les bright illumination, depending on where you are stitching. Or reading your needlepoint magazine or books in bed.
Here's a link to the Kansas City needlepoint website to buy one of these. I doubt the bulbs are replaceable when they burn out but at $18, you can probably just buy a new one.
Other brands are available that are similar. Needlepoint Clubhouse carries an LED model with two color modes that is $5 more expensive and uses three AAA batteries.
