Making clothes

I have decided to start Crochet as an alternative to watching TV, any ideas of what I should make, it all looks so home made, it is kind of strange.
so far I have made a 10" square and it took most of a day.
the yarn available is mostly in strange colors, like shiny pink and drab grays.
I need to start making my own, anyone know how to make dies?,
I want to try purple cabbage to die the cotton I have.

Comments:
They have dyes at the store that you can buy.

thanks, cool website, it has everything I would want.
 
For doing clothes, you might want to invest in one of those knitting "looms" then you can do broad areas in one swipe.
 
I thought about it, but I cant figure out how to make one, and they cost lots for something that seems so easy to build, yes I see the logic flaw, but I do not see a way out of it.
 
ok, you convinced me, I will build a loom, and start weaving fabric, or should I just buy one, but they cost so much...
