Most of the yarn manufacturers have free patterns for knitting, crochet, crafts, etc. I like lionbrand.com. You can also google “free crochet patterns”.
Crochet Pattern Central: http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/directory.php
All of the yarn companies in the U.S. with broad appeal have web sites with both crochet and knitting patterns. I particularly like these two:
Berroco: http://www.berroco.com/item_fr/fr_crochet.html
Lion Brand: http://www.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/patternList.fcgi?tXX=1&s=Crochet&l=1
And Knitting Daily has some good ones: http://www.knittingdaily.com/blogs/patterns/archive/tags/Free+Patterns/Crochet/default.aspx
You have GOT to get on Ravelry.com. It’s such a cool website. When you become a member (which is free), they offer all kinds of cool things-you can search for free and purchaseable crocheting and knitting patterns, keep a hook/needle inventory, keep a library of the books you own, keep track of the specifics of your projects (including yarn, pictures, etc.), see other peoples’ projects, and the list goes on and on. It’s a really cool site. I’m addicted. Some of the other sites I like to go to include http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com (I actually use their knitting site more often); http://www.freevintagecrochet.com; and http://www.lionbrand.com (which is one that someone else already mentioned). If you do a search for “free crochet patterns” at yahoo.com, it’ll most definitely turn up more websites than you could ever know what to do with. Try the Ravelry site, though. It’s really awesome!

youtube has many videos too.
just type in the crochet project/pattern you are interested in, in their search boxes.
many of these also have their free newsletters that keep updating you on new patterns & ideas.
and many have an interactive forum too where you can exchange & share.
all the best

happy crocheting
