Welcome! 

Since you're a beginner, my suggestion is to start with something very small and simple.  Probably the biggest mistake beginners make when trying anything new (myself included ) is to start with something too large and complex.  I did this with bead crochet.  While I'm in no way a beginning crocheter, I couldn't handle the beads in addition to thread and crochet hook, and it wasn't until I stepped back and used large pony beads and regular yarn that it fell into place.  So this is why I say to start smaller, and as for simple, you don't want to lose detail in your design.

Once you feel ready to tackle a full graphghan, once you choose the image you'd like to use, go to the top menu here and choose patterns/create a pattern.  From there you can follow the prompts to upload your image, set the various options and create your pattern.
