You should preserve on 4-1. Since you've already done 1-2, you can try killing the Red Dragon (if you got a good bow, over 16 agility and a couple hundred arrows), by positioning yourself at the top of the first tower on the dragon's path and taking pot-shots at his health. It should take at least 10 minutes to kill him.
It will be worth it though, since then you can go back to 1-1 where the red dragon was roosted, and pick up a Purple Flame Shield. This is the second best shield in the game, in terms of Guard Reduction and 100% Damage Reduction, if you level it up all the way to plus 10.
With this shield, it should be a cakewalk to block the skeleton's attacks from 4-1 (except the Black Skeleton attacks, that one you should dodge like mad).
World 4 is the best world to farm for souls early in the game, so you can get a nifty SL boost in it, that will allow you to tackle world 3 in a much easier fashion. Also, the bosses in world 4 are amongst the easiest in the game, so you can finish it quite fast.
If you're still having trouble in world 4, you could ponder trying to complete World 5 first instead. This is because the boss in 5-3 drops an amazing shield which has 100% Magical Damage Reduction, and it's the best shield for this effect.

I already killed the red dragon and have the purple flame shield, just don't have enough strength to use it yet, what should I do with the red dragon's soul? can I just consume it or should I keep it with other demon's souls?? I think I'll give 4-1 a try tomorrow.
