Can see a whole new world now!
This magnifier is brilliant. The fact that it has a cord so that you can put it round your neck and it then literally is just above tne cross stitch picture is such a good idea PLUS a light to put on if the light in your house is not too good AND a little extra magnifier on the glass so if necessary - like me - you can see each stitch so clearly. It is a marvellous piece of kit and very economical for what it does. I would have paid more for this it’s so good. Even if you’re not 62 like me and have good eyesight I still think one can only benefit from owning a magnifier like this in your sewing bag.

Does the job
No instructions on how to insert the batteries!
Even when I’d figured this out I found it difficult to do as I have dexterity problems _ once achieved the product was fine - light weight & does the job although the light could be brighter

A great help
I have found this a help with close work. As I have got older my eyes have deteriorated especially since having laser treatment, this magnifier has helped with small print and also has allowed me to return to my cross stitch and sewing.

Purchasing craft items
A lightweight, robust magnifier which is a handy size. Doesn’t take up much space in my craft bag so it’s convenient for stitching, etc when I’m making long train journeys. Adjustable cord for wearing round the neck, leaving your hands free to work on project. This magnifier doesn’t flip about like some I have tried and can also be used free-standing. Requires three AAA batteries and the light is bright enough to make sorting thread colours very easy.

Very useful tool
I was given this as a gift by my husband as I have found that with ageing eyesight, doing cross stitch in dark colours was becoming a problem. This gadget has made all the difference and I use it suspended from my neck via the cord supplied. It may look odd but who cares - it gets the job done!

Fantastic Product
I have been doing a cross stitch pattern for my friends wedding and the aida is very fine. I am ashamed to say i started this pattern a few years ago and my eyesight has deteriorated and i was finding the stitching very difficult. This illuminated magnifier has been superb. Just what i needed

Perfect fit - great for projects!
I’m currently doing a picture of a church and it’s quite close work, with jewels (Diamond Dotz) this is perfect for hands free projects! I love the light and the close magnification feature. I can do the project anywhere! Handy for other jobs too.
