My second pull request was literally making documentation changes they had discussed in comments. No technical knowledge required. There are ways of doing things, and you don't need the greatest technical skills. Find something you're okay enough at and start digging in to learn how to do a little more.

Either that or forget the pull request route - pick a technology you want to learn and build something small in it, then tinker with it.
