I understand the basics of combination knitting, but wanted to be able to do it with my left hand, so I practiced that way during the class. She discouraged me from doing that, saying that wasn't the point of class. Well, that was the whole reason I was taking the class, so I was disappointed. I can see how many could get a whole lot from her classes if they have trouble learning things on their own, but since I am pretty good at learning things from books and the internet, I rarely take classes. However, I was struggling with doing the purls left handed so I thought it might be worth taking a class. I'm glad to hear someone else was a little disappointed b/c I felt like I was the only one. I could also imagine that the ladies in my class who had paid for a whole class on cabling without a cable needle were probably pretty bummed that she taught that during the combination knitting class too. As was I since I already know how to do that. Maybe she needs to create a Combination Knitting 2 Class.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00353689144373538254noreply@blogger.com
