Continental

I’ve been wanting to learn continental knitting, so I cast on the swatch for my sister’s pedi socks and decided to knit it continental, just to see. Not as tough as I remember from when first I start knitting, but I feel just as clumsy right now. And my stitches are so tight! But they are coming out pretty even so my tension in knit and purl are about the same. But gosh, my left hand is a little sore from being so tense holding the yarn. You’d think it would be easier than this since I do a lot of crochet as well. Pedi swatch will be frogged and redone normally. But I will keep practicing continental till my hands get comfortable enough to actually knit something that way. It’s sort of fun trying something new though.
