I wish there was one that you could plug in and not use batteries - is there such a thing? Thanks!
Just one of the "perks," of getting older! I used to be able to trace a line (sewing), to where it looked as if the stitching was part of the fabric . . . but no more. Same with SITD. When I think about it, I switch to higher-power reading glasses, to sew . . . but usually don't think about it, until after I've wobbled off-course. I love Stitchnripper's suggestion of an intentionally wobbly SITD!
