How many stiches for a child's scarf?

The number of stitches for a child's scarf will depend on the desired width of the scarf and the gauge of the yarn you are using. Typically, a child's scarf can range from 6-8 inches wide. It is best to make a gauge swatch to determine the number of stitches needed to achieve the desired width, and then multiply that by the width of the scarf you want to create.

How to understand crochet patterns?

look at the pattern...... it usually says how much..... i.e.: 5 skeins of yarn As noted above, the pattern generally states how much yarn to use for that pattern. If you are trying to design your own pattern, however, then the process is more complicated. There is no general rule for how much yarn in a pattern, even as to type of pattern, because each is so different. Different scarf patterns, for example, would take different amounts of yarn. Generally speaking, I can probably make a scarf if I have 7 to 10 ounces of yarn. If I am making a hat for a child, I can do it with one 3.5 ounce skein with yarn leftover. For an adult, it depends on the pattern. Sometimes one skein would be enough, sometimes two would be needed. Afghans require more yarn, but amount varies with yarn, hook, and the size of the afghan as well as the pattern. One can take a baby afghan pattern and use chunky yarn to give a larger afghan, but amount of yarn required will be different. If you have a pattern and it gives you the yarn amount in skeins but not ounces, and you want to use a different yarn, then you need to find out how many ounces in that type of yarn, then buy the required ounces in a yarn in the same weight category.

How many yarn needed to crochet a twin blanket crochet ball bring 300 yds?

How much yarn you need to make any afghan depends on the hook you are using, the weight of the yarn and the pattern you are making. If you are using bulky yarn it will take a different amount than sport or worsted yarn, to make the same pattern. The amount of yarn used also varies depending on the stitch being used. For example, an afghan made entirely in single crochet will use more yarn than one made using double or triple crochet. There are so many different yarn types with each being a different number of yards and ounces that it is difficult to determine which yarn you are thinking of using. Just to give a very rough estimate, say you are using Red Heart Super Saver worsted yarn which is 364 yards in 7 ounces, you could estimate a need of perhaps 7 skeins to make a twin size afghan (about 2500 yards). That is a VERY rough estimate. But again, there are so many variables. Note that a lighter weight yarn will take more to get to the same finished size as a worsted weight blanket. If you are able to make a swatch of the yarn you are considering, you can figure how much you need from the swatch by matching how much yarn the swatch takes and the size of the swatch. Just multiply it out to the size you want. That will give you an idea of how much yarn you need.
