Used Book in Good Condition
Garn Studio offers a lot of knitting tutorials They also offer patterns that use the techniques with the tutorials on their site as well.
There is also the Stitch'n Bitch series of books that shows you all basic knitting techniques with patterns to work on.
I would also recommend The Knitter's Bible. It has the order that you're looking for and projects that you can practice with.
As you're in the UK, I recommend going to waterstones or wh smith and looking for The Knitter series of knitting and crochet stuff. Usually at the end of the year, they compile all the masterclass lessons from all the issues that were published during the year and bring out instruction books for the beginner. Weirdly the only time they are available is at Christmas and new year.
I love their magazine and their classes. They are high quality and very easy to follow. Plus it's economical really.
I don't think there is really a guide with everything you'll ever need to know.
However, the knitters bible (you can find it in a lot of book shops as well as in places like the Range and possibly hobbycraft.) it's not a massively expensive book, but it has plenty of pictures and simple easy to follow instructions. It's enough to get you far enough into knitting before needing a more advanced book. It has a glossary of terms and instructions on how to do each stitch and step.

The Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible is one of my favorites. The Knitter's Bible helped me advance my knitting past basics, and the Japanese Stitch Bible is really like a continuation. There are so many beautiful stitches in that book!
