Awesome vid. If you are a newbie knitter like me there is some great content at at ebeginnersknitting (.) com

I basically knit with the working stitches on the right moving to the left; my major problem though is following patterns; all appear to want to go in the direction from left to right so when you talk about right side vs. wrong side patterns loose me & it becomes difficult to follow patterns. Any help there? It becomes important for me not to twist the stitches too.
-
it's kind of weird when you teach yourself how to knit and i never switched the needles. i can knit from both ways and i have no problems. i have been doing it for 10 years now.

thank you for your videos, you prove to be more helpful then any other knitting website

Apparently the term clockwise and counterclockwise has to have a physical reference. Almost like an Escher print where you can see quite clearly UP and another quite clearly sees DOWN. Copy the movements, ignore the terminology if it doesn't work for you. The important thing is to wrap in the direction I wrap, lest the stitches become twisted.

I just started learning from a friend. When the "right" way proved difficult, she stood in front of me to help me do it lefthanded. You can learn from right-handed people, they just have to be standing in front of you to mirror the movements.

Me, too! I learned knitting and crocheting from a righty I didn't know anyone who could knit left-handed.

Very helpful. I'm just now discovering how many Lefties were forced to learn the 'Righty' method. This will be a big help for Lefty Newbies.

Yes thank you I left handed and I knit! Your videos are so clear(clearer then books because most books I am sorry to say are geared more towards right handed knitter) No offense to right handed knitters they just have it allot easier then left handed knitters. Anyway hope you come out with more videos and let me know about the book or dvd that you plan to make(when it is done and how much it is). Again thank you so much!

The DVD is due Friday! I'm picking up the final copy today from the producer. see leftoutknitter dot com for information. In the DVD I demonstrate 2 left-handed knitting methods. One is with the leading leg on the back (like this YouTube video) and the other is with the leading leg on the front. From cast-on to bind off and several increases, decreases tips and tricks are thrown in there. The next DVD will have cables, socks and lace work!

Goodness, you're quite welcome. I gather you knit and are left handed? Are there other videos you would like? I am working on a book as well, but might try a DVD inlieu of a book as so many of us are visual learners.
