RE: Attempting a Button Joint : 17 April 2024
I admire what you do with needlework! I am a lefty and come from a generation where my needlework teacher spent more time being peeved at me for being left handed than she did actually teaching me anything. I do realise now, that this was likely born from the fact that she did not have the ability to teach things in "reverse" lol - but as a little girl, all it showed me was that I was a problem and honestly, I did not know why. How sad.
The only form of needlework I ever really managed successfully, and was no thanks to her, but rather my mom - was cross stitch - which I fell in love with as a tween!
Many thanks for your comment, @jaynie.
I haven't done a lot of cross-stitching so it would be great to see some of your work.
I think it's always good to have a hobby or a pastime that will help you learn skills and make you feel a sense of achievement when you complete a project.
Pity about that teacher who put you off knitting. A very quick search on You Tube gave me this tutorial on knitting for left handers. There are other tutorials too; You Tube has been a good source to get help for techniques and stitches.
