I was teaching a half-day tally workshop some years ago, and watched as a left-handed lady worked her tally normally, but with the worker in her left hand - but she was tensioning up on the right side - with her left arm crossed far over to the right. She said she was so left-handed that her right hand would not tension properly. She had learned from books, mainly 'and the book said/showed..."
Well, I suggested she just reverse the instructions, and tension to the left, - as no-one would know or could tell that her tallies were worked 'backwards' - she tried it, and the biggest smile you have ever seen spread across her face! No-one had ever told her that she could work "in reverse" and it would still look the same!! They had all just watched her struggle! Regards from Liz in Melbourne, Oz.
