Welcome to the World of Fiber Crafts!

Today I want to take you back to 2007, when my knitting journey began. My mother taught me the basics, but she was right handed. I was left handed, so this left me at a crossroads; do I force myself to learn this new craft with my non-dominant hand, or do I learn to teach myself by reversing the directions of patterns? The majority of resources I had access to were geared toward right handed knitters, but this was the first lesson I learned, resourcefulness. In doing some exploration online, I was able to find some resources explaining how to knit as a left handed person. With those, I was able to refine my basic knowledge and further teach myself.
