English vs Continental Knitting comparison

Knitting tutorial showing both methods on double knitting pattern (k1, sl1 wyif) and why learning continental may help increase your speed!

[brief]

Im a truely unique mixture of so many styles its insane.
When i work left to right, I knit st, sticking my needle from center to the back working through the back leg, wrapping my yarn clockwise (staring at the point of the needle) from my left hand.
Then, to get purl stitches, i work from right needle to left, working in the front loop, sticking the needle from the outside to in between the legs, with yarn in left hand, wrapping counter clockwise.
I somehow dont have twisted stitches at the end of all that.

Little backstory is i started off as a crocheter for only about 5 years, and picked up knitting just to be able to replicate a christmas stocking that noone was willing to make copies of for me.
I didnt study any specific person or style, simply saw the concept, pull yarn through middle of stitches, and troubleshooted a bunch of different ways to do things until something worked.
Only thing that never changed is how i hold and wrap my yarn, which is 100% how i manuver yarn when i crochet.

I knit with the yarn in my right hand but never have to throw the yarn or even flick my right index finger. The yarn goes over my finger the other way and I catch the working yarn with the tip of the right needle and can knit and purl at a decent speed. I hold the right needle not too tightly, bring the needles together, and as the needles touch I let the right needle move and it catches the yarn easily.

this is an excellent comparison. i am a thrower as well and am lazy when it comes to trying to change how i knit. you seem to have the hang of continental, yet you still throw? is there a reason seeing that it is so much quicker to knit this way?
