The process of knitting has three basic tasks: (1) the active (unsecured) stitches must be held so they don't drop; (2) these stitches must be released sometime after they are secured; and (3) new bights of yarn must be passed through the fabric, usually through active stitches, thus securing them. I hope you will follow my knitting instructions.
Plaited stitches are a common method for knitting jewelry from fine metal wire. First you have to take the yarn in front of the needle, then insert right hand needle in first stitch on left hand needle. You can opt to learn from an individual locally, but this can cost quite a bit of time and money.
The ability to work from either end of one needle is convenient in several types of knitting, such as slip-stitch versions of double knitting. Extra curvature can be introduced into knitted garments without seams, as in the heel of a sock; the effect of darts, flares, etc. William Lee, who invented the first knitting machine in 1589, also made a knitting frame which was so effective that few improvements were needed for 250 years.
It doesn't all happen at once. Get knitting!
