That looks really awesome! I really want to start making my own clothing (socks, gloves, hats, etc.)

Start with squares (scarves, dish rags, etc), work into circles (hats), and then into squares plus circles (gloves, socks). Get a book that does a good progression into those kinds of projects. Best way to find what you want would be to go into that knitting shop and browse! It's not hard, just a steep learning curve, and an ability to be okay with everything looking cruddy the first time, and better the next :-)
