I think it depends on what you consider easy. An easy pattern to me would include knitting, purling, increasing and decreasing, but no cables, knitting in the round, lace, or color-work.

I have been known to make patterns... I made a gaggle of finger puppets (a duck, mouse, cat, monster, worm with hat and scarf, lion, snake and jellyfish) and I've also done a pattern for a small knitted chicken. I am intending some day to put them in the Guild... but me lazy.

If you're familiar with knitting and purling I've seen a site with lots of rags with different patterns. I made a sailboat cloth in a few days time.
Or you could just browse the "free pattern" section on knittinghelp.com

I love Lion Brand's free knitting and crochet patterns. Although I admit, I rarely use Lion Brand yarn when making any of them. (Shhh...don't call the Yarn Police!)

i think basic shawls and scarves are the easiest patterns. if they start getting boring, you can always start playing with lace patterns or cableing

I'd also check out the ever-popular www.knitty.com
The patterns are usually well written and anything marked 'mellow' should be great for beginners.
That and it's free (yeah, free!)

well you can always make a scraf or soemthing simple liek that but it just depends on what you think is simple. if you are ok with wiith something with shapping, than try something that involves the DPNs.
