Hello again, Alexis,
The expression is 'savoir faire quelque chose ' which is 'to know how to do something' which is similar to being able to do something.
As for how to use the expression take a look at the following lesson
Connaître vs savoir = to know something vs to know how to do in French
and in particular :
"Savoir can also be followed by an infinitive to express how to do [something], which can be equivalent to can do [something] in the sense of having a skill..."
Hope this helps!
