And below are 2 items that i've knit recently that are my own left handed patterns--note: all of my pattern directions are given for left handed knitters, if you knit right handed, you will need to reverse the pattern! I will post instructions for more patterns soon!
A hat that i've knit for my daughter, 1 in grey and 1 is in royal blue
The finished "Royal Blue" hat...
Here's the same hat done in grey instead of royal blue
....Cory's socks, I knit them in 2 different colors so that beginners would be able to judge where they are in the pattern while they are knitting it. The grey at the top is the ribbing, followed by royal blue from the ribbing down to the heel flap, the grey is where you form the heel flap and turn the heel, and the royal blue from the heel flap to the toe is where you shape the instep and establish the length of the "foot" of the sock, the grey at the toe, is where you shape the toe and the royal blue at the tip of the one sock is where you graft the top and bottom of the toe together
Here's some instructions for some special socks, they are alpaca/mohair/angora/rambouillet fiber that I spun myself using a drop spindle! Both the fiber and the drop spindle came from good friends and they were knitted using a pair of nickel plated antique "sock pins" which is the name of a very small double pointed needle.
