Its taken awhile for me to transition my hands from throwing to continental knitting. The purl was the blocker (surprise). Finally, I feel that I have it. In retrospect I see two pieces of instruction that were not being communicated but were in front of me almost the entire time. If you are struggling to purl in continental and just can’t get it like I was. I hope this helps.
