RE: To Knit or Knot

Hey, you never know - we find some activities when we're at a place to find them. So maybe there just wasn't room for it in your life, when you tried before? Who knows? :)
As a fellow leftie, though, I totally feel you. I had similar difficulties trying to learn guitar. I think in the end, I learned (the little I did) the "right" way around (i.e. how right-handed people play it). It just seemed easier.
I'd like to knit to be able to make my own clothing. Especially when I see some of the wonderful things some gifted people make (I'm looking at you, @eveuncovered). But then, I remember the years of practice and that I'm not really in for that, so I quietly put the wish aside. :D

It's weird how I also do some things the "right" way, like eating with a knife and fork, but the spoon with my left hand, and the computer mouse with my right hand, don't know why! I tried using the mouse with my left hand when my right shoulder was injured, but it was really not easy.
My one brother also is left-handed and plays the guitar the "right" way, and used to kick the ball with his right foot which is unusual for a leftie.
I must check out @eveuncovered's work.
Maybe one day when I can't move around freely, I'll try my hand at a 'sedate' kind of handcraft;)
I don't know why these thins have gotten ingrained in our brains that way, I wonder about it too! Maybe it's 'cause that's how we're used to seeing people do it? I dunno. Anyway, looking forward to your knitting adventures, should they come in the future :D Hope you're well.
