Liat at KNITFreedom has a good video on this subject, Learn to Knit, Troubleshooting Common Mistakes.  You can also see her knit1fortheroad interview here.

Enjoy your knitting, make mistakes and learn from them.  Soon you'll be knitting like a pro.  Pinkie swear.

Note to my readers:  I've been regrouping from the weekend travels and work and  I apologize for not sharing a daily dose of knitting with you, here.  You can catch two quick posts on CreatingTheHive regarding the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival and some weekend festivites, if you're so inclined.

Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.
