Hi there!  One of my favorite hobbies is to knit which is using yard to make garments.
Knitting is a method by which yarn is manipulated to create a textile or fabric for use in many types of garments.

Knitting
Knitting is a method by which yarn is manipulated to create a textile or fabric for use in many types of garments. Knitting creates multiple loops of yarn, called stitches, in a line or tube. Knitting has multiple active stitches on the needle at one time. Knitted fabric consists of a number of consecutive rows of intermeshing of loops. As each row progresses, a newly created loop is pulled through one or more loops from the prior row, placed on the gaining needle, and the loops from the prior row are then pulled off the other needle. Knitting may be done by hand or by using a machine. Different types of yarns (fibre type, texture, and twist), needle sizes, and stitch types may be used to achieve knitted fabrics with different properties (color, texture, weight, heat retention, look, water resistance, and/or integrity).
Knitted fabric
Knitted fabric is a textile that results from knitting. Its properties are distinct from woven fabric in that it is more flexible and can be more readily constructed into smaller pieces, making it ideal for socks and hats. Its properties are distinct from nonwoven fabric in that it is more durable but takes more resources to create, making it suitable for multiple uses. There are two major varieties of knit fabric: weft-knit and warp-knit fabrics. Warp-knitted fabrics such as tricot and milanese are resistant to runs, and are commonly used in lingerie. Weft-knit fabrics are easier to make and more common.
Aran jumper
The Aran jumper (Irish: "Geansaí Árann") is a style of jumper that takes its name from the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland. A traditional Aran Jumper usually is off-white in colour, with cable patterns on the body and sleeves. Originally the jumpers were knitted using unscoured wool that retained its natural oils (lanolin) which made the garments water-resistant and meant they remained wearable even when wet. Use of the word jumper (or other options such as "pullover" and "jersey") is largely determined by the regional version of English being spoken. In the case of Ireland and Britain and Australia, "jumper" is the standard word with "sweater" mainly found in tourist shops and America.
Sierra Norte de Puebla
The Sierra Norte de Puebla is a rugged mountainous region accounting for the northern third of the state of Puebla, Mexico. It is at the intersection of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt and the Sierra Madre Oriental, between the Mexican Plateau and the Gulf of Mexico coast. From the Mesoamerican period to the 19th century, this area was part of a larger region called Totonacapan, and area dominated by the Totonac people, extending further east to the Gulf of Mexico. Political maneuvers to weaken the Totonacs led to the region being divided between the modern states of Puebla and Veracruz with the Puebla section given its current name.
Hand knitting
Hand knitting is a form of knitting, in which the knitted fabric is produced by hand using needles. Flat knitting uses two straight needles to make generally two-dimensional (flat) pieces. Flat knitting is usually used to knit flat pieces like scarves, blankets, afghans, and the backs, fronts and arms of sweaters (pullovers). In flat knitting, generally stockinette stitch, the hand-knitter knits from right-to-left on one side of the fabric, turns the work (over), and then purls right-to-left back to the starting position. Usually the smooth side of the fabric is considered the "right side", the one facing outwards for viewing; and the side that faces inwards, towards the body, the ridged side, is known as the "wrong side".
History of knitting
Knitting is the process of using two or more needles to loop yarn into a series of interconnected loops in order to create a finished garment or some other type of fabric. The word is derived from "knot", thought to originate from the Dutch verb "knutten", which is similar to the Old English "cnyttan", to knot. Its origins lie in the basic human need for clothing for protection against the elements. More recently, hand knitting has become less a necessary skill and more a hobby. Knitting is a technique of producing fabric from a strand of yarn or wool. Unlike weaving, knitting does not require a loom or other large equipment, making it a valuable technique for nomadic and non-agrarian peoples.
Native American fashion
Native American fashion (also known as Indigenous American fashion) encompasses the design and creation of clothing and fashion accessories inspired by the traditional cultures and arts by the Native peoples of the Americas. Indigenous designers frequently incorporate motifs and traditional materials into their wearable artworks, providing a basis for creating items for the "haute couture" and international fashion markets. Their designs may result from techniques such as beadwork, quillwork, leather, and weaving. In some cases, however, they choose not to include any elements associated with indigenous cultures.

I have always wanted to learn to knit! Do you have any recommendations on how to get started?

You can knit with a machine or by hand.  I would select one of those options first.
Knitting may be done by hand or by using a machine.

Undercover Cops: Hakaishin Garumaa
, sometimes referred to with or without subtitle as , is a turn-based traditional game developed and published by Irem exclusively in Japan for the Nintendo Game Boy on December 10, 1993. It is a spin-off of Irem's beat 'em up arcade game simply titled "Undercover Cops". It is also the second-to-last game Irem released for the Game Boy, with "Daiku no Gen-san - Robot Teikoku no Yabō" being the last. The player starts by choosing one of the three Undercover Cops: Zan Takahara (known outside Japan as Claude), Matt Gables (known outside Japan as Bubba) and Rosa Felmonde (known outside Japan as Flame).

Hellcats over the Pacific
Hellcats over the Pacific is a flight simulator computer game for the Macintosh computer. It was written by Parsoft Interactive and released by Graphic Simulations in 1991. Hellcats was a major release for the Mac platform, one of the first 3D games to be able to drive a 640 x 480 x 8-bit display at reasonable frame rates in an era when the PC clone's VGA at 320 x 240 x 4-bit was the standard. The graphics engine was combined with a simple Mac interface, a set of randomized missions, and a number of technical features that greatly enhanced the game's playability and made it a lasting favorite into the mid-1990s.

I would like to learn by hand. What would you recommend I do to begin learning?
