Well, learn... and here's the link to the PDF file of the book that helped to teach me:

www.jnjgateway.com/public/NLDUT/Wound_Closure_Manual1.pdf (http://www.jnjgateway.com/public/NLDUT/Wound_Closure_Manual1.pdf)

So now you've downloaded the book and want to practice... and no, I'm not volunteering... but I'll tell you how I learned. Buy a large fresh ham. Take the ham home, slice the skin, then suture it up... slice in another place and do it again. When you're confident that you can close a cut on the ham with a nice neat row of well-tied stitches, then remove all of the stitches in the ham and bake. Serve with sweet potatoes and red cabbage.:p
