If you are just beginning I would recommend a medium weight yarn, a basic four-ply yarn of good quality. A simple project that lends itself to a variety of bold colors and various patterns, the crochet scarf has marked the foray into the world of crochet for many just picking up hook and yarn.
How about free quilt patterns? Crochet instructions for any particular project can be found in a variety of craft stores local to you, as well as online. It is important to select the appropriate pattern that will fit the size of the intended project.
There is no specific requirements for choosing a hook, but depending on how tightly or loosely you crochet will be a consideration. Most people will crochet baby blankets using a pattern. Materials such as wood, rattan, metals, leather can be incorporated in various ways with crochet fabrics to create many fashionable designs.
You'll be amazed at how easily and well you pick up the art. Each stitch is completed when only a single loop remains on your crochet hook, and then the next stitch is worked. When traveling, use an empty plastic coke bottle to keep the hooks from escaping.
Take your time and concentrate on your technique. Once completed the finished product can be given away to family and friends.
