sm_comcast_adAccording to the expiration date for the "special offer", I received this Comcast ad sometime in summer, 2003. I liked it so much I’ve kept it pinned to my studio wall ever since.

You have to admit, he’s a pretty advanced knitter!  Continental style, and he’s purling, yet.  Even more remarkably, it looks like he is wrapping the yarn around the needle in the correct direction.  Speaking from 4 years experience in teaching Continental style knitting, I have to say this guy’s form is really pretty darned good!

I know of at least half a dozen ways to accomplish a purl st in Continental, and I am inordinately pleased to see that it looks like he purls the same way I do.

Plus, he’s even done some additional casting on at the end (or beginning) of a row!
