I am trying to learn to knit, hard to get lessons because I am left handed, can you help?—-from the beginning, cast on and such. Been trying to learn since I was 25, am now 67
Hi – There are discussions to follow on http://www.knittinghelp.com concerning left-handed people that knit. (-not to be confused with left-handed knitting-). You could see what various people say there. Some try to reverse; others say hand preference doesn’t affect the ability to knit as a right-handed person would. Best wishes!!!
