I've never heard of counter-clockwise being called "anti" clockwise. Interesting....

It's English (and other English speaking countries as well). When I was there listening to the traffic reports of the circular Motorway (M25) they reported clockwise and anti-clockwise.

That's me too. The very first moment I opened it she was counter clockwise, but then she was clockwise the remainder of the time I looked AT her. When I shifted my eyes to read the article to the left she was spinning counter clockwise again.

When I read the descriptions under each - most of them for left and right apply to me.

Yup that was me. It seems she spins counter clockwise a little then switches to clockwise.

Interesting how most of us here can see it both ways. DH thinks I am crazy. He only sees it going counter clock wise. Must be the creative mind in us quilting folks.

Right
I wonder if quilters tend to be more right?

I have that too but when I looked at her straight on she was clock wise. When I read the words next to the image I see her going counter clock wise. I am not truely right handed either and do things often with both hands equaly well.

I am left handed. The only thing I do with my left hand is right and bowl. Everything else I do right handed.Comb my hair, crochet, reach for something, just about everything.Years ago I managed a beauty supply store. We were taught to put pricing left to right according to prices. Cheapest to the left and expensive to the right. So according to this I am lefthanded but left brained????? No wonder my family thinks I am crazy!!!!!!!!!LOL LOL

clockwise, then counter clockwise. Yea, I'm just glad to have a brain these days.
