Thanks for posting this and other videos here. These are really awesome! I’ve got two of your books and really love this technique.
How are you able to keep the red thread from showing in the white, when you carry it?
The red thread shows a little bit, but the tight stitch hides most of it.
Great idea to switch with a left handed friend!
Actually, I couldn’t do the left hand but last night developed a way of going back the other way and putting the hook under loops from front to back…same as going back left handed, but holding it with the right hand.
Awkward, but shows that people with only one good hand could possibly go right and left still.
III HAVE Nooo CLUE On how to do LEFT HANDED OMFG!! D:
Even after seeing this video? It takes LOTS of practice!
I made today but the edge u see the other collor D: cuzz i dont get the left hand
The edge color will be covered by a row around the border. Why not try the other way in the video where you turn over the piece and (still using your right hand) push the hook into the loops from the back?
God bless you thank you for such a great channel.
@NolaGB The red thread shows a little, but you can’t see it at a distance.
@philosgal Yes, as long as you insert your hook from the back when you are going the other way with the back of the stitches facing you.
@tapestrycrochet The original question was deleted. It was:
Carol I crochet with my right hand so if I turn my work will it look neat??
