Thank you! Yes—lefty. Somehow I learned to crochet right handed but lefty on the knitting.

Yes-lefty. I work stitches from left to right. So I have to flip things like ssk/k2tg to get the right slants. It’s weird—I knit left handed but crochet right handed.

I had to look up lever knitting—looks interesting! I think you’re still working stitches from right I left—is that right?

“Feeties” made me giggle so much for some reason. Thanks—I needed it this morning

It’s Sous Sous by Norah Gaughan! Thanks for asking—I should have included that!

Lovely! Out of curiosity do you knit each panel separately and then sew together or pick up stitches to start the next one?

So glad you and kitty are safe! ❤️

Thank you both! I should mention this started out as Toni Lipsey’s Bahama blanket but a slightly different chevron.

Taught myself recently. Had an old Boye "taught myself to knit" kit from the 90s that I've had forever. Learned knit stitch and then just knit an entire ball of yarn to get the muscle memory. After that LOTS of You Tube tutorials. It was a little rough starting because I'm a lefty. Best of luck!
