I know this won’t look obviously suspect to most of you, but the yarn is quite definitely off to the right side.
Now under normal circumstances, I knit Continental (picking the yarn off of my left hand) but this project–my sister’s squid hat–is a pain in the wrist and I’m finding myself employing as many different knitting techniques as I can possibly remember. Overhand, throwing, knitting backwards…you name it. I’m doing it.
It’s called desperation.

I love knitting backwards – for small stretches at least. It’s like making your head go inside out. Very satisfying.
