I think this looks like a fun project - a Loopy Scarf and Hatpattern found at Joann.com.
It’s at a skill level 2, so you would need SOME knitting expertise, but it looks simple enough. I always try to do projects a little outside of my comfort zone. It stretches me - AND - it teaches me as I stumble through the patterns.
That’s where a Local Yarn Shop (LYS) comes in so handy. It’s especially helpful when there are groups like the Friday Night Knitting Club held in your LYS. There is usually lots of laughter, lots of help, and lots of friendship developing. AND . . . you get rows upon rows completed - which, of course, means lots of projects completed. Way too cool, huh?
I know that every time I have been to the shop there have been people asking Zaynab questions - or asking other knitters questions - how to get out of a knitting pickle - how to do this or that stitch - sharing experiences - sharing joys and sorrows . . .
It can become a family away from your family. And, while I live 150 miles or so away, I have been made to feel more than welcome every time I have gone in. Even the hubby doesn’t have a problem going in. Well, okay, he is all right with it for a short while . . . and then he is ready to go back to the car to wait out my shopping spree. 
Hope you are supporting the LYS in your neighborhood. Hope you’re getting those Christmas pressies finished, too. Have fun!
