If you are just beginning I would recommend a medium weight yarn, a basic four-ply yarn of good quality. The early development of the craft of crochet is linked to the imitation of lace and lace making.
My mom had taught me to cross-stitch as a child but that wouldn't do anymore. Still all this could be useless if your basic knowledge of embroidery and stitching techniques is incomplete. If you don't know of anybody to help you, jump online and do a search for crochet baby blanket patterns.
Although other forms of handwork can be dated far back in time, owing to archaeological finds no one is quite sure when and where crochet began. Give yourself plenty of time to learn the art of crochet before you start on a baby blanket. Most of all, people who are into crocheting simply enjoys the fact that crocheting tools are small and handy and can be easily kept in purses to take out when a good crocheting diversion is called for.
You can do it while you are watching TV, or while sitting in a doctor's waiting room, or traveling as a passenger in a vehicle. The most important thing to remember when starting to crochet is not to get overwhelmed.
