Here are some step by step instructions to guide you on your way. 1. Push the right hand needle through the first loop and behind the left hand needle. 
2. Ensure the yarn is at the rear of the needles and wind it round the rear (right hand) needle in an anti-clockwise direction. 
3. Catching the yarn with the right needle, pull a loop of the yarn through the first stitch, bringing the right needle in front of the left needle. You will end up with a loop on the right needle and all the stitches on the left needle. 
4. Now pull the top stitch off the left needle by pulling on the right needle. 
5. Repeat the above steps. Here is a picture of what your work will look like after knitting your first two stitches
