Way back in 2014 when I still worked at Lion Brand, I had some time free time at a yarn show and decided that it would be fun weave some some LED lights into my wristers. Little did I know that this little fairy light project would end up being one of my most popular to date, it was even featured by CRAFT!

Fast forward to 2020 … this week I was delighted to see these knitted lights by Leila Raven:
