knitting/crochet

Does anyone know a good website or have a good step by step guide for knitting/crochet to get the basics down?  or is this a skill i would have to learn from watching someone?

 

Thanks!

    Also, if you have a little yarn shop near you, I've found they can be really helpful.

  • I picked up one of those little, $10, "learn to crochet" kits from Barnes and Noble.  Once I got the basics, I started looking up patterns.  I like Lion Brand.
