My right brain is stupid!

I'm right handed so that means my left brain controls my right hand and my right brain controls my left hand. I can't crochet with my left hand at all and I am very fast at crocheting with my right hand. I have an afghan about half done for my bed for the new house. I tried to do it with my left hand because my right hand was tired the other day... my right hand was hurting because of it... so I switched hands and my left hand couldn't even hold it right.. i didn't even know how to hold the crochet hook with my left hand.. I couldn't even make a single stitch! Not one! My right brain is not capable of learning how to crochet! That makes me upset because when my right hand gets cramped I wish I could just switch hands. Okay.. can you crochet with your left hand if you are right handed? I was going to write this discussion and then forgot it, and then I saw GG's discussion and it reminded me of mine... so here it is. Hey.. someone is missing... hope she is okay .. haven't seen her in a few days... my Aunt Hatley.. is she okay?

Hi ms. Pq, I think if you used your both hands the first time you do crochet you can used them both now. It is only we have to practice both hands in doing things so if ever the right is invalid the left can do it. I saw a child she's my daughters classmate way back when they are still in preschool she can draw left and right hand. I was amazed when i saw her drawing both fine with both hands. Last year my daughter contacted her on Facebook she saw the artwork of that child and i ask her if she can still draw using both hands, my daughter said yes still she can because she keeps on practiceboth hands. I missed mam Harley too, I know she has no computer that's what ms. Gardengerty told on her discussion. I hope her son can fixed her computer soon everybody missed her.

Maybe. I just know that I can't do anything .. I can't write with my left hand. I look like a poor first grader with rotten penmanship with my left hand.

Well, as you know I'm a writer... and I can type without looking at the keys and my left hand knows just like my right hand does when I have hit the wrong key almost before I even see it on the board. But I try and write with my left hand and it looks like a baby is trying to write... and my hand doesn't even know how to hold the hook... it just amazes me how stupid my left hand is for crocheting... it's like my left brain knows how but my right brain doesn't know how.
