I was wondering if any of you can help me! I am right handed and I learned how to knit from my left handed mom. So now I knit left handed. I have never knitted anything for a pattern before. Will knitting left handed affect the way the pattern will come out?

knitting is when you're holding two needles on one on each hand, the only question is where are you most comfortable holding the yarn/thread with the needle, if you're used to putting the needle or thread on your left, then that's fine...
for more info you check out Youtube.
btw, knitting with yarn on the right is called English Knitting, and on yarn on the left is called Continental Knitting.
