Ragfly makes an excellant point. Look at a video. Seeing it is going to help you more than you reading about it on any website. Perhaps you can find a book maybe. I would check the town library. And by all means, do the yarn thing.
As for your fly line selection, wet flies will allow you to fish more of the water because they sink. But at the same time, dry fly fishing is more exciting to see a trout or bluegill stalking a surface bait. I like the wetflys myself. If you decide to go that route, the one fly you cannot leave home without is a Wooley Bugger. My favorite colors are olive or black. If you get the size right, they will take just about every fish you want.
