Gathering Skills
Mining
Buy a mining pick from the provisioners and stand next to a mountain. Press u to use, select the pick, then press the arrow key in the direction of the mountain. Then tape down the F9 key (thesedays you only have to press shift-F9 to repeat-use: bluetak no longer required) to mine your way to victory (however if you are AFK too long you will get booted). Don't catch black lung.
If you're really lucky you might dig up a gold nugget, otherwise you'll just dig up ore, the colour of which will depend on your skill. If you're unlucky, you may unearth an angry zorn.
More on Mining here.
Woodcrafting
Woodcrafting is the combined skills of lumberjacking and of making wooden items, such as staves, torches, and bows. To aquire the raw materials (i.e. logs), use a woodsman's axe in the forest and you might, depending on your skill, chop a log. Careful, however, as you may disturb a Wisp.
More on Woodcrafting here.
Crafting Skills
Blacksmithery
Blacksmithery consists of two separate skills:Weaponsmith and Armourer. Both boil down to creating the items of war: metal weapons and armour.
To smelt iron ore, press u to use, select a pair of tongs and press an arrow key in the direction of a brazier.
To make metal weapons and armour, use a either smith's hammer or an armourer's hammer on an anvil whilst having ingots in your inventory. A list of items will then appear that you can make, once again according to your skill, and how many ingots you have.
More on Weaponsmith. More on Armourer.
Woodcrafting
As mentioned previously, Woodcrafting is the combined skill of logging and creating wooden items. To do the actual item creation, get yourself a pocket knife and use it to carve wooden things. You will need to have logs in your inventory to make anything.
More on Woodcrafting here.
Alchemy
Alchemy is all about making potions, processing potion ingredients and converting or tinting different Item Materials. Alchemists are dependent on tinkers to make most of their processing and potion tools.
More on Alchemy here.
Tinkering
Tinkers specialize in the creation of crafting tools and other knick-knacks. From studs for studded leather to probes and lockpicks. Their ability to make items that almost every other craft is dependent on makes them pretty important.
More on Tinkering here.
Tailoring
Tailoring is the art of making cloth and leather items. To get started, buy a sewing kit from the provisioner, get yourself some cloth (or leather) and get sewing! More on Tailoring here.
