I am very happy that I found this site. I taught myself to crochet many years ago . It was a little frustrating at first as I am left handed and the instruction book was written for a right handed person. I did overcome that hurdle and have been crocheting for over 60 years and loving it every minute. Many thanks.

Welcome to the group harborvuer! Hope you'll share some of your projects with us! We all love new ideas and reminders of older ones, making a comeback again. Take care!

Hey, Harborvuer, Glad to have you on with the group. I too, am left handed. My mother knitted and crocheted but when I wanted to learn she said she couldn't teach me. There was a sweet old lady living next door and she said she could. So all that summer I got up , got dressed and went to the house next door. She also taught me to cook. But I learned that the directions say to make 1dc in each of the next 4 sc. So I make a dc in each of the next 4 sc. It doesn't say to make them right or left. If you want to try left handed directions, Mikey Selick on The Crochet Crowd has a video for left handed people. I tried it but it only confused me. So I stay with the right handed directions. He also has a lot of patterns that he would do for left handers. If you get a chance show us some of your work. Margaret
