What kind of grafting? I'm the kitchner stitch queen. If you need help with that kind of grafting, I'd be happy to help you through my blog - I took a class and the instructor gave us some tips and notes.
I found this: http://www.knittinghelp.com/knitting/basic_techniques/misc.php If you scroll down, there are videos of different grafting techniques. I learned to do intarsia from these videos. You may need high speed internet or to download and then watch if you are on dial up.
I used to hate grafting, until a friend taught me a trick, which I shall now share with you.
When you reach the grafting point, knit a row in a contrast yarn. The waste yarn will then act as a guide as you Kitchner (you follow it as it goes through the "real" stitches). I hope that makes sense ...
