New Online Program Allows Left Handed People To Learn To Knit Easily

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

For years, left handed people who wanted to learn to knit were left out in the cold when it came to instructional materials. Knit Easy has changed all of that with a new program especially designed for lefties

Oak Flats, Australia (IPRWIRE) Fri, Feb. 2nd, 2007 — Easy-knit (http://www.easy-knit.com/indexlh.htm) is proud to announce its new learn to knit program for left handed people. One out of ten people is left handed, and there has been a definite lack of training materials for those lefties wishing to learn to knit. This new program makes it easy for left handed knitters to learn and perfect proper techniques.

Anna Stewart, CEO of Easy-knit, recently said: “Finding a book that teaches left handed knitting is almost impossible.

Some left handers even go to the extent of re-writing reverse instructions for themselves. Other left handers just give up before they get started.”

Anna Stewart, CEO and author, states: “There was a time when learning how to knit was taught in schools as a craft activity or you could go to the local wool store that often ran classes, or you could learn from parents or grandparents. Unfortunately, during the 70’s and 80’s this craft took a downturn in popularity, resulting in many of the local wool stores closing their doors. Today finding classes or finding someone to teach you how to knit is almost impossible.”
