Crochet is derived from the French word croc or croche, meaning hook. 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.

Many of these books and magazines, are rare and expensive, putting them out of the reach of the average crafter, other than in a library, Libraries in particular are good low cost sources of patterns, however it generally takes a fair bit of time and effort to locate a suitable pattern. Actually, crochet is not difficult at all. It can get intimidating, but contains enough stitches that you usually get the hang of each stitch and are ready for the next one.
