Oh thank you so much for showing how to do Continental knitting for left-handers! :) I am new at knitting and have wanted to learn this method. :)

This was very clearly taught. Thank you. When I’ve tried to switch from English to Continental before it always, made the stitch look weird (almost like a purl stitch). I’m looking forward to using some scraps to practice with.
