Continental or English?
First off, I tend to blog and YouTube video surf alot. So, lo and behold I discovered (rather a bit late) that there are knitting videos running rampant in YouTube!
It’s such an excitement to say, I happen upon this video and struck me to include it in my blog. It’s called Continental Knitting Demo. I must add here that, YES, I am a Continental knitter. But I have a custom-made (my own weird) way of the Continental style. I can do the other methods, but always fall back on the Continental way. With this video, the demo shows a more efficient, higher speed of continental knitting. I will definitely give this a try. I’m open to all sorts of learning.
I wonder how many knitters out there prefer Continental (German or Left-handed) over the English (Throw, American or Right-Handed) method of knitting?

Then, here’s one knitting-related video that is funny and cute, but well-produced. It’s called Blood, Sweat & Wool. Enjoy!
Hey this is great. I’m a Right Hander – I’ve always been freaked out watching a Left hander but this top video makes sense of it. It almost looks quicker than the RH method, I may well give it a try!
Thanks for siphoning out the vast bank that is You Tube.
Hi, and thanks for stopping by my blog! I too, am a Continental knitter – the only one in my knitting group. We call ourselves the Downeast Knitiodts. I’ll be stopping by here frequently, especially in the winter months when I’m not consumed by gardening and will be getting back to my knitting.
