Knitting with two strands of yarn
I've never done this before. Any tips? It seems difficult.

Hold the two strands together as though they were one and start knitting. That's all there is to it. You may need to knit a bit more slowly than usual to make sure you catch both strands with the needle on every stitch.

Some people wind both strands into one ball but I don't think it's worth the trouble.
