Hi Elena, Letslace has a video for winding on in the left-handed manner that shows her making a double hitch. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FxVBSv5RhNo
I do it a different way. When I was just beginning, neither my teacher, nor I realized I was winding on differently than she was, so I was winding left-handed, but hitching right-handed. I went to a convention class and the teacher saw the issue immediately. She told me to hold the bobbin in my right hand with the thread hanging off to the left, and then with my left hand palm up, do a motion as if Iâm telling a bad little boy to âcome hereâ. Catch the thread in the âcrookâ of that finger, and then just twist that hand in a clockwise direction so the back of the hand is then up and facing the ceiling. It creates a loop in the thread, which you put the head of the bobbin into from âbehindâ or from the âfar sideâ. If youâve done it correctly, there should be a thread in a U-shape with thread coming out from under it. Hopefully this helps. I find that the left-handed âcome here little boyâ visual is very helpful.
