[Nfb-krafters-korner] Continental and English styles

[Deidre Muccio]

Continental is definitely faster, the only thing is that I am more likely to
catch the yarn up twice or catch something else up during that sweet little
twist you do with the right needle to get that live yarn on the left hand
picked up.

I'm starting to do better with the continental method! I think it's just

Same here! I knit the American way and everything goes nicely, then I say
ok, let me try that European method again and things get messy quickly. 

Hmm, should I really try the European way again now that I have four rows of
American of my dish towel done? I've already ripped it out four times. Could
have had sixteen rows of American by now. <sigh>

I should be better at this, after all my ancestors are from Europe? <smile>
