When following a graph you read it right to left, right?

In the past I've read them left to right then I read somewhere that the graphs should
be read the other way.   

Has anyone seen them read back and forth and do they write them in this order?

Thanks!

Here is a nice little guide that explains the fundamentals of reading graphic charts for knitwear. I think its rather useful to refer back to from time to time, although I think some graphs are constructed better than others ;P
