My biggest challenge was figuring out how to hold everything. That was true of both crochet and knitting, though with only one hook, I took to crochet a little faster. The other think to remember is that there are LOTS of ways to knit, and while one "correct" version might be difficult, any direction you can get a loop through another one and onto the other needle is probably has a name and is "right" according to somebody. So I'd strongly encourage you to look around. If nothing else, keep hunting out websites for different kinds of knitting (eastern, western, continental) to see if one of them is easier for you than another. I couldn't do western stockinette stitch (standard here in the US) for a long time, but after I got the hang of other orientations of knitting, I was able to figure out some of the stuff I couldn't do before.
The biggest things I'd say is: 1. Be patient, especially if it doesn't look perfect - practice will help make it look more even. 2. Use a solid easy to see color - anything light or bright enough that you can clearly see your stitches will help. 3. Don't use the same piece of yarn over and over and over to practice on. I did this and before long it was worn and splitting and only making everything harder!
HTH.
