[Death by Mirrors]

xolv, it's actually not that hard if you start with simple projects. There are some good tutorials available online, both in video and in written form with photos. For example this free course on Instructables explains knitting, and you will already be able to make a scarf, phone cozy or similar thing just by learning how to cast on and do the knit stitch.

For crochet, you could start for example with a bookmark that also only requires you to learn two types of stitches, yet already looks like a sophisticated trinket.
