You could definitely learn it all through YouTube, though. I learned circular knitting first (on circular needles) because I think that's the easiest and then used video tutorials to fill in the gaps as new techniques and stitches came up in patterns I wanted to do. Some patterns are helpful and will describe what they mean by certain abbreviations or complicated stitches, too. I'm definitely not a super skilled knitter but I can do basic stuff pretty well.

So you go in like normal but then don't take the yarn off the needle, pull back and then knit through the back, THEN pull the stitch off.
