Anch'io lavoro così le maglie a rovescio. Me l'ha insegnato mia mamma tanti anni fa. Non sapevo che è il metodo inglese.

Hej! Var är denna så kallade engelska metoden? Kvinnan håller inte garnet i högra handen.. detta måste vara fel video. Detta ser ut som vanlig kontinental stickning.

Volgens mij zie je in de video de continentale methode, maar staat in de beschrijving de Engelse methode. Zoals het in de beschrijving staat heb ik het ook geleerd

Inglise pahempidine silmus oli ju lõng parema käega hoida ja ümber varda ka parema käega. Video näitab lõnga vasaku käega hoidmist. Jutt ja video ei lähe kokku.

From watching lots of knitting videos on how to tension yarn I've come to realise there is no right or wrong way to knit. What matters is what is most comfortable for you. This, throwing method, is how I have always knitted but I'm trying to learn to lever and flick now as most speed knitters use that method and its much more efficient.

This is how children or beginners knit, it is not how English/USA knitters work. The right hand should be under the needle, like holding a pencil, and the first finger is all that moves to 'throw' the yarn a round the needle tip. This throwing action is the same for knit and purl and might help all those people who either get a different tension when they purl, or avoid purling whenever they can.

A very nice French woman showed me a better way 40 years ago. Do not lift the right hand off of the needle to wrap the yarn. Instead, hold the right needle close to the tip with the thumb and last fingers, and just move the yarn on the right finger in a circular way around the needle. Much smoother and faster.
