Never 

Nor me 

Poor left handers, must be hard to learn how to knit if the teacher is right handed

Even cutting it out properly would be beyond me 

I would never have the patience for this. I once bought a simple cross stitch set - I lost patience before I’d sorted out the threads🙈😂😂😂

Yes, my son , granddaughter and grandson are all lefties ....I think I was too , but it wasn’t allowed in school when I was a kid ....but I still sew and do practical stuff left to right ...

 I can sew on a button and, at a push, I can put up a hem - that’s it.

I think I might be able to do one of those
