I ran:

python -m pip --version

And it returned:

pip 8.1.2 from C:\Users\myonl\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\site-packages (python 3.5)

So I set my path to the above, but when I try to actually use pip I get:

pip install PyQt4
'pip' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

What am I doing wrong?

The first time you do python -m pip, the second time you do pip.

pip is not on your PATH, but python is. You can fix that, or you can call it using python -m pip.

Also possible is that you simply need to refresh your console window so it picks up the change you've made to PATH. Try closing your terminal and re-opening it and seeing if you have the same problem.
