I learned to knit the English method when I was younger, but always heard how the continential method was easy and much faster.
So I decided to try it.... just couldn't do it. THEN,
I watched the video and it just clicked.
I have only done the knit stitch in this method as of now.
My only problem is, I feel like I am knitting very lose, although the stitches look nice and even.
I feel like my yarn does not have enough tension.
BUT... the stitches look pretty good .. if I must say so my self

Im so thankful for the videos ! It challenged me to learn this other method.

NEXT.... I will try the continental method of PURL !

So, is there a way to get more tension on the yarn in the left hand? or do I need it?

thanks in advance for any help
