Thanks a lot for posting this video. I pass the wool or thread from my right hand too, a technique that I inherited from my mother.
Most of all the other videos present the wool passed from the left hand which must be great for the left-hand people though!!!

Excellent teaching tool – I love it and highly recommend it to my friends – especially the ‘wonky’ part – relaxes me and makes me chuckle as I learn Thanks!
