It took me a while to finally dip my toes in the knitting community and I learned the first easy basic patterns through Youtube. You can find a lot of helpful videos trying to help you. In my opinion you can learn best from beginners themselves, as they dont use complicated terms and know the struggles. Once you got used to how your fingers and hands have to handle the yarn, knitting will soon become your favorite new hobby, Im sure. You can knit and listen to podcasts, knit in cafes in the sun or just on a trainride to work. Its so calming and relaxing for the mind and you can live out your creativity by combinating colors and patterns.
