well i watched the videos before I even had needles or yarn or anything lol!! 
and I wanted to start knitting English style, Iām right handed as well, but when i tried it was just too uncomfortableā¦it felt much better holding the yarn on my left hand so iām officially a continental knitterā¦But i can do both now, knit and purl conti and english styleā¦it just takes me a few minutes before my hand gets used to the english style while knittingā¦
