Help with Fetching...my thumb is backwards!!

When I was all done I realized my thumb was showing the PURLED side instead of the knit side....

WHAT Did I do? It does'nt look bad, but I just want to know why it did that!!

Thanks!

You were likely knitting on the inside of the tube rather than the outside.

but how?? LOL. I have no idea what I did wrong, so how do I not do it again!!

Thanks!

It's easy to do, especially with small things. I imagine that you used the two back needles rather than the two front needles when you knit it.

thanks! This was my first time using Magic Loop (Which I loved) so maybe I got twisted around or something!

THanks again!

The stitches probably started out reversed when you got them on the needles.

It's fixable, though, if you're so inclined.
