I'm just getting back into doing cross stitch and would like to know what other stitchers use when you have trouble seeing your needlework up close. I have prescription reading glasses but still need some sort of magnifier to use with the glasses. I have seen 2x ones and they look like they might work o.k. I have been using one that you hang around your neck but it keeps slipping. I would like to get one that clamps to your work. What type of magnifier do you prefer to use and why do you like it? -- Linda Delcamp from Brighton Mi

- I have a floor ott light lamp. It has a clip to hold the pattern as well as an extension with a magnifier. Everything can be adjusted to wherever you want it. It was expensive, but well worth it. I've had a for several years now and I love it. -- Doreen Lund from Brampton, Ont. Canada -- Apr 12

About Copyrights:
Copyright patterns may not be copied and given to someone else. It's against the law and it's dishonest. On the Internet, one copy can quickly turn into one million which basically takes away the need for people to buy the patterns, which puts the designers out of business. You can give away, trade, or sell the original leaflet though.
