[Nfb-krafters-korner] Beginner's knitting

[Denise Shaible]

What is the difference between continental and the other type, I can't 
remember what it's called?  Is it a matter of the hand in which you hold the 
yarn?  I'd like to know because I don't know which one I use and if a class 
is taught in a style I don't know, then either I have to learn that style or 
wait for another class.  I'm interested.  I never knew there were different 
types until just recently when I saw it in a reference for how to knit 
certain stitches and I also heard about it when I was speaking with someone 
at our KK table at National.

Regards,

Denise

Now I will have to talk with Annette as I do not  knit continental  style
and if that is what Annette taught last year it might not be wise for me  to
partner with her to teach a purl stitch,

I will have to give this some thought and consider what to do and how I can
help.

Annette,

Since your class in January I can fly with the knit  stitch but find the
purl
stitch much slower and at times, challenging. I  heard on a knitting
podcast
that there is a knitter in New York City who  teaches a Turkish style of
purling that is popular with all who learn it.  Are you familiar with this?
If there is a pattern that has extensive  purling, I tend to avoid it on
the
needles so I would like to  improve.

Karen
