Dear Community,
how should we think about the differences in patterns for right-handed and left-handed people?

Well, I can only say this:
I’ve already followed patterns written by a left-hander for left-handers. The stitches were written out in words rather than using a crochet chart. Only the pictures were mirrored. If necessary, you can work with a mirror.
I didn’t notice any difference for myself.😊

I’m right-handed.


And then I tried crocheting single crochet stitches with my left hand. It was pretty tricky. Because it’s completely different for me. But it worked, and each stitch took forever.
