This  video provides beginners with a slow walkthrough of how to do  continental style knitting - both knit and purl stitches - and talks  about the challenges of learning this method, especially if you are an  English knitter usually.  I start with a demo of the stitches, and then  (at around 3:00)  I start going through each step slowly in the main lesson.  This is not  designed to be a fast tutorial; I've gone through the steps slowly on  purpose so that a beginner can hopefully easily follow it. I'm not an  expert at it by any means, but I hope I have got the method  across...after that, it's all just practice!  Thanks for watching, and I  hope this video helps you :)
