1. I have a similar sackboy pattern that is set out a bit simpler than yours if you want to PM me your email details (just click on my avatar to send message) so I can send it to you. Then just start at each step and see what you can't understand and do a search for it. For example - if it says use 'cable cast on' and you aren't sure how to do that, then do a search for the term - there are lots of web pages and youtube videos showing this. You will soon get used to the abbreviations used in knitting - this site is quite helpful: http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/knitting-glossary. If you still get stuck somewhere, come back and ask the specific question - we aren't going to try and tell you the whole thing as it would take too long. Hope this helps. Good luck.
2. If you have never knit from a pattern before, how did you do anything? This isn't the pattern to be starting out with. I suggest you find someone that has some experience, and work with them. Better yet, find your local yarn store and take their beginner knitting class. They teach you so much that you need to know... including how to follow a pattern. Definitely something every knitter needs to know. Without a specific question, there is no way of knowing where to start with this one.
3. If you use the magnifying glass on the slide show box, it will enlarge the picture to the point where you can easily read the pattern & not need translation.
