There are a lot of projects that are just knit or purl or alternate rows of knit and purl. It took me a while but if I can look I can see the difference between the knit and purl, but mostly I found I have to finish a row before I put something down.

And there's an iPad app I quite like "Knitting and Crocheting HD"
