Drawing or sewing would be a good start

Embroidery is small, precise work. Knitting takes coordination of two knitting needles. I would suggest crochet. There are so many patterns on youtube which teach you how to crochet and I think you’d do fine with it. Just type in “basic crochet for beginners” or something similar.

Basic knitting is pretty easy.

Another recommendation for knitting. I’ve had arthritic hands for decades, and knitting is very doable for me, and it’s very portable.

If you have more patience, I know many who enjoy crocheting. I tried embroidery, not for me.

I’m more concerned with what will be easiest for muscle memory, or just easiest for clumsy hands to learn, not so much if the work is intricate or not.

Abstract finger painting?

I think if you do knitting starting with big needles, you’ll catch on fast. I made some very long scarves when I was in college.

Pottery?

Big knitting needles may do it, but I still think crochet would be easier. You only have one hook whereas with knitting you have to coordinate one needle in each hand. Speaking for myself, I never could pick up knitting but have crocheted a number of things including an afghan.

Of the three I say crocheting.

In grade school, I broke my wrists, and hand weaving helped to get some dexterity back.

I had a rectangle loom with 15–25 nails per side. Took me one year mostly on weekends to finish. I weaved over and under the loom. I used yarn, or wool.

It was fun.

Not trying to go off topic, but you have mentioned your love for Taylor Swift before. Would you be interested in picking up a guitar or an instrument?
That can be extremely rewarding.

I second crochet.

I think crochet would be easier than knitting.

But I think it’s also easy to get into the rhythm of knitting.

Embroidery seems less about muscle memory and more like drawing with textile as the medium. If that makes sense?

You might enjoy cross stitch which is one of the easiest forms of embroidery to learn. Between knitting or crochet, I would say crochet is easier. If you want to try something a little bit different, you might enjoy felting.

My hands don’t like to cooperate when I try to play guitar.

^Of course not. But your hands, are “instruments” too.
Your vocal chords, are not dissimilar from a wind instrument.
You were born with these things, but had to learn to use them…

It was just a thought. I thought of sculpting, but that has a potentially large start up cost, and nobody likes to spend a lot of money on something if they don’t know if they like it yet.

I hope you figure something out.
Personal time, and hobbies, are VERY important for a relatively healthy lifestyle.
