That’s too funny! I knit continental style while most of my friends use English style, so I give them a hard time for “doing it wrong” lol.

@ickplant Both mom and Nana knitted "continental style" w/o casting off. When she worked at a knitting/needlepoint shop in retirement, she and the other knitting instructor both taught continental style knitting.

At 70, I still have the afghan I crocheted at 14 out of all the leftover yarn from mom and Nana's projects.
