You of course don’t need a (grid) framework to use grids in your design. They 
can be both a help and an obstacle, depending on objectives and experience with 
them. I’d argue it’s much much better to learn CSS design properly before 
taking up a front end framework (except for javascript). CSS isn’t rocket 
science. It may take a dedicated year to actually learn it properly, but you'll 
get it back.

There’s a lot of fluff material out there out of touch with best practices, so 
finding the good teachers and materials is time well spent. Which of course is 
hard when you don’t know what you’re doing. Unfortunately, typically most 
people that don’t know what they’re doing wouldn’t know this. It’s sign of 
insight to realize you don’t. And then get to work.
