The directions seem pretty straightforward to me. I don't know how to elaborate on them. What is it you're having a problem with?

do I cut the yarn to make the tail?? I guess that is where I am really stuck??

It's added after the knitting is done. If you're knitting on the row where the tail is joined, they just want you to place a marker for later (tie a loop in that stitch or something similar). If you're done with the knitting part, then use another piece of yarn to attach the tail.

Loop markers go on the needle and will move up with the needle as you knit. Or if you have the kind of loop with an opening, you could use that. I can never find mine.

To be honest, you probably don't even need a marker, you'll be able to see where the tail goes on the pig, anyway.
