[Nfb-krafters-korner] reverse crochet stitch instructions

[Terry Powers]

Cathy;
When I make my turn, I would say I am crocheting from left to right.  I
think it depends on how you hold your work.  I want the holes I am putting
my hook into, closest to me, so I would say I am going left to right or
maybe away from me.
Right to left, in my mind, my loops would be away from me.

Terry P.

Hello,

Catherine,

>From what I understand the reverse crochet is crocheting from left to right
instead of right to left. When I first learned to crochet my instructor had
never taught a blind person before and she never mentioned to me that I was
crocheting in the wrong direction. So for a long time I was doing the
reverse crochet and not even knowing it. it was not until I was teaching a
class and told my students to crochet from left to right, that someone with
some crochet knowledge told me that this was incorrect. <groan> the next
question was however did I do that anyway, it must be difficult? 

So now I crochet in the correct direction and wonder if I can even crochet
backward nowadays.
