Look at lots of books, some have better diagrams than others. Go watch videos on the internet, there are lots available on YouTube and on Knittinghelp.com
If you have any questions, find a forum and post your question. there are lots really nice people who knit and I've never met a knitter who isn't willing to lend a (virtual) helping hand.

"Stitch and B*tch" by Debbie Stoller is how learned on my own. She really says it so you can understand and she is funny too which made it even more fun to learn. And u tube as well! Please look into this book too you won't regret it.
Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

I did some looking online and it seems there are a couple of yarn stores near me. One offers classes and clinics on knitting. The classes don't start until January, but the clinics are ongoing, so I'm thinking I could buy a book (probably the one of the ones you guys have recommended - thanks!) and then I can go to the clinics as a supplement.
Thanks!
