KNITTING EUROPEAN STYLE

http://www.allfreeknitting.com/ brings you this video on the European method of knitting. Very different from the usual North American method, this one requires less movement, and therefore, once mastered, goes much more quickly!

@asimina1989 Hi there! Well, I am of the same opinion as you... it really is a technique that lends itself best when you are just doing plain knitting.

Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

This is the way I was taught how to knit. I was told by others who saw me knitting, that I was doing it backwards. All I knew was that it worked for me. Glad to know that this way of knitting is not wrong, or backwards. Thanks for posting this. :)
