A Knitting Post!

I have learned how to knit backwards! It's the craziest thing, but I was doing some short-row experiments, and I thought to my slef, I wonder if there's a way to knit back and forth without turning the work around and purling. And then I just did it! I held the yarn in my right hand and knit from the right needle onto the left needle. So I'm knitting continental style, but backwards. It was one of those right brain/left brain things; I can't even tell you how I did it, it just happened. Anyway, it's very very cool for bobbles and short row stuff, or just to give my hands a break.
