First you need two knitting needles, preferably of the same size and length, then you need some yarn or wool. To start knitting you need to cast on. Try this answer on how to cast on . . .

How_do_you_cast_on_in_Knitting

To begin knitting after you have cast on the number of stitches you are happy with, insert the right needle into the first stitch on the left needle, from bottom to top, right to left, making sure the right needle goes behind the left needle. You should now be holding the needles in an X shape with the working yarn beside them both. Wrap the yarn around the back needle and then in between the needles. You then bring the right (back) needle to the front, keep in on the left needle to you don't lose the stitch. Then lift the right needle with the new loop stitch on it over and off the left needle. You should now have a new stitch on your right needle. Repeat this until you have finished the row. Then you do it on all the other rows until you are done.
