I knit continental as a right handed person would and that works. BUT as a leftie I find it really hard to hold a tapestry needle in my right hand. What about grafting with the needle in your left hand. How does that work? I can find lots of examples where people actually knit "backward" but that isn't me. My yarn and rows end up where a right handed person's would.Thanks
OMG....thank you, thank you, thank you Anne. This is exactly what I've been after. Once again you prove that you're way ahead of other knitting instructors. Clear, concise and clever instructions. 💗
