I like and use Ott lights which are supposed to mimic natural daylight.  But, I don't know if you can get them in the UK.

Where can I purchase an Ott light in the US?  We carried them when I had a shop, but they were all sold when we went out of business.  The light in my apartment is not always good for sewing.

You can get daylight lamps in Hobbycraft - you say you're in Devon, there's one in Newton Abbot if that helps?  Also, most UK craft mags carry discount coupons for them if you have any of them to hand.

I went online to Joann's Fabrics and found an Ott desk light on sale.  I ordered it and now look forward to really seeing those little stitches on dark mohair.
