Any tips on a more suitable first project welcome, or any patterns.

I've found a pattern that seems simple once I learn how to read the pattern itself, ha

Why not try socks? There are some good simple sock patterns out there. You’ll learn knitting in the round and other skills depending on whether you make a cuff down or toe up sock and there are lots of YouTube videos to follow along with.
