Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Sorry not a lefty but I do tat. My 2 sisters are left handed. I can't tat well with a shuttle but I love needle tatting. Have you tried it? I taught myself from the net and I like how you are not limited to the crochet cotton on the shuttle.

Welcome to the QB!
I'm a lefty, but craft-wise am more ambidextrous - I can't use scissors or sharp knives with my left hand but can use both hands for rotary cutting, when one side gets tired I just switch hands. I knit and crochet right handed, am attempting to learn needle tatting from a video I have had for years, hadn't really thought about it but probably do that right handed too. I really am a lefty - just have learned to adapt when necessary.
