Thank you 1,000 times. I was so concerned with patterns, and now see that if doing it in this manner I don't have to worry about it anymore. I will have to build speed up again, but well worth it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13731824.post-1152969057230613252006-07-15T08:10:00.000-05:002006-07-15T08:10:00.000-05:00Cool!

It's nice to be able to watch someone knitting and not be confused because they're doing it backwards! ;)<BR/><BR/>I knit similarly, but for the knit stitch I wrap counter-clockwise, and when I purl I purl through the leg facing me, wrapping counter-clockwise again. It makes for fast knitting, but I think the result does look a little different than normal. I'll have to try your method. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394697513121003244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13731824.post-1152658753709571452006-07-11T17:59:00.000-05:002006-07-11T17:59:00.000-05:00Yes, I'm left-handed and this is how I knit. I am...Yes, I'm left-handed and this is how I knit. I am a rebel and refuse to even think about learning right handed knitting. It causes no problems with patterns and despite what someone said to me once I do not knit inside out and my thumbs on mittens are not backwards (some people are so rude!) I love knitting, I love knitting my current way, but I am always open to ideas to make things faster. I don't have a problems with too much movement in my current style as you can see in the video. There is just so little (practically no) information about actually knitting left-handed. EZ called one style of knitting left-handed, but she was referring to which hand held the yarn and not how the knitting was moved from needle to needle.Diane Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10828440829708158898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13731824.post-1152653908204178632006-07-11T16:38:00.000-05:002006-07-11T16:38:00.000-05:00Wow! that is cool!
