So many things!
I learned how to put my kids' car seats in correctly. The manual was so confusing. Seeing it on video cleared everything up.
I learned how to roast a duck.
I learned how to repair a zipper myself.
I learned how to grow sprouts in jars in my kitchen.
I learned make-up techniques.
I learned how to do lymphatic drainage massage.
I learned a bit about how to do reflexology on my kids.
I watched a few painting lessons on YouTube before attempting to paint some canvases to hang in my daughters' rooms -- and they actually came out great. (And no, I am not naturally talented).
YouTube is also my go-to place when kids ask me questions I really can't answer. Like, how do planes fly? Why do volcanoes erupt? How did the mechanic replace your broken car window?
I really love YouTube.

Off the top of my head:
how to crochet properly (I was doing it wrong) and many different crochet stitches/techniques
how to knit
how to make perfect french macarons
how to make beautiful buttercream cupcakes
and of course how to waste hours and hours learning how to do things I'll never end up doing anyhow... (for example I have no time to crochet a full dress!)

How to do a French braid in my daughter’s hair. I felt like the only woman on earth who couldn’t French braid. DH was so impressed when he saw it and couldn’t believe I learned it from YouTube.

Ok you have all convinced me to give YouTube another chance.
One thing I learned from this thread so far is that dishwashers break very often!

I'm really interested in learning this stuff. Can you please PM me? Or give me links to good channels for the music stuff?
