See http://yihui.github.com/knitr/demo/lyx/
Since you are using Windows, it is recommended to use the first approach (it is difficult and very time-consuming to compile LyX from source under Windows, as the second approach requires). Basically you rename lyxknitr.R to lyxsweave.R and put in under c:/users/me/appdata/roaming/LyX20/scripts; then your Sweave module will actually become a knitr module.
