If you are just beginning I would recommend a medium weight yarn, a basic four-ply yarn of good quality. For those who are just beginning the art of crochet, you have probably completed many a blanket.
In the 1840s crochet instructions began to be published and so crochet became more popular. Is Christmas coming fast and gift ideas slow? You can make a crocheted toy with the knowledge of three stitches and the ability to read a crochet pattern.
In a relatively short amount of time you could be making your own crochet baby blanket. If you are feeling ambitious, you can even attempt a crochet scarf as a gift. Books aren't the only place to find these types of baby blanket patterns.
At the time, knitting seemed over my head and maybe even a bit "granny-ish". By referring to old books, magazines and brochures, people find techniques that have been forgotten. Not only is the market stocked with a large variety of crochet magazines, libraries too have a good collection.
Most of all, have fun and relax. Often others find themselves driven by many motives to continue doing this craft for many years getting past the frustration.
