Left-Handed Cast-on Tutorial

Description

Okay, so first a disclaimer: I am not left-handed.

I had to learn how to knit left-handedly in order to teach my mother, who wanted to learn to knit (and is very, very left-handed). I thought since I was already doing that, I might as well add a tutorial as well.

So this part 1 of my planned series of knitting tutorials for the lefties out there. Next will be the knit stitch, then the purl stitch. I might do some stuff on reversing lace and cables as well.

Part 2--The Knit Stitch: [link]

Hope you enjoy this, and that it is helpful! And if you have any questions, please ask!

Wow. You are amazing! Learn to knit left-handed for your mother! :wow: :heart:
That is so so nice!

I am left-handed, but never learned to knit the other way round – our teacher never realized that there were 5 (!) left-handers in our class, so we just knitted how she told us to (right-handed). :D
After 4 years she realized we are left-handed and was stunned. XD

I hope your mother enjoys knitting!
