If you are just beginning I would recommend a medium weight yarn, a basic four-ply yarn of good quality. Crochet is one of those great crafts because you can get started really quickly with nice projects that will not have people asking you what is that going to be when it is finished.
While it may take a while to learn the symbols, they can save space, and after awhile, many experienced crocheters find them easier to read. The weight of the hook, hook material, and finger size and length will influence your decision. You can find the patterns at local craft stores or online where pattern sites offer many from which to choose.
Make the last round of each square the same color and you will pull them all together in a nice color coordinated project. After you crochet your project, you may want to try your hand at something a little larger. You may decide to make something that would look great on your couch or maybe a nice quilt for your friends that are visiting a cabin this winter.
Just get yourself a crochet tote bag (or crochet one yourself) and you are ready to go. Now that you re organized, have fun crocheting!
