Yesterday in the wool shop i met this nice woman i have known ,
She needed a certain circular , shoip was out of this number , i told her she can lend one of mine if they are free of knitting . Thus she went with me and i found a free no 6 ... as i gave it to her she asked me to explain how to knit with it ,, i explained , and than she said she used to knit years ago ,but forgot !!!"Ok ," i said "no problem i will refresh your memory !!!". i show her how to knit ,,,,, she wanted the circulars to knit a sweater ,,,as she show how neat it looked to knit with circulars ,,,,,, as i look at her struggling with the needle throwing the thread at one stich and doing it the other way in next ,, i asked her how she USED to knit ,,,, she said this was how she knits !!! than i understood !!! and asked her if she was left handed ,,yes she was !!!! but never learned to knit that way ,,, thus i sat down and tried it with her ,,till i got the hang of it and than could Be with her while she learned to do it in a way she could handle ,,, she was Delighted , said that first time in her life it felt OK ,,,, i adviced her to first knit some squares and only than move to the sweater ,,,, i made her laugh by seeing how hard it wa for me to knit the left sided way .... mirjam |
