Youtube is awesome for little knitting videos. That’s how I learned.

What a fascinating modern age we live in! I'll just have to check that out!

It's like Buttah!
Yes, and in this fascinating modern age, I have learned that there are several ‘styles’ of knitting - all pertaining to which hand you carry the yarn. In English knitting, you carry the yarn in the right hand and ‘throw’ it over the needle. This is how my Grandmother knitted and has been my life long understanding of what it’s supposed to be. But that ‘throwing’ action isn’t lady-like enough for some so a competing technique was developed: Continental style, where the yarn is held in the left hand and hooked by the right needle. All the motions are smaller, the hands move less, and you can go much faster. Continental knitters (in my growing experience) are very snooty about their style and their commentary on English knitters ranges from “you’re doing it wrong” to the ever-disdainful, “Oh.” And then there are some knitting styles inbetween. Yaay Youtube!
How about a crochet costume:

of precious!
