Posting here because the question will be useful to beginners. I usually spend quite some time in a game trying to figure out how to re-route the knight. Is there a way to learn that forever?
In particular the one square horizontally and two squares diagonally are the ones that cause me most trouble to solve.

For a decent chunk of the board - to get to a square of the same color , two moves. To get to a square of the opposite color, three moves. To move to a diagonal square from where you are. Odd numbers in two moves. Even numbers in 4 moves.

I actually made a YouTube video on how the Knights move because they are so different from other pieces happy.png
