Try Skeindeer’s Selbu inspired mitten patterns. Her patterns are well written and easy to follow. Available on Ravelry. I use a white tea towel on my lap when knitting dark yarn. Also try a neck light which is two little flash lights connected with a flexible tube. You can see your knitting in any light conditions.

Hi Dan - I saw the Aurora Borealis Cowl by Stacey Lewis - @theknittingtutor - and thought of you - I love the colours she's used in her sample.
