Here is just one of the many out there ... http://www.fiber-images.com/Free_Things/How_Tos/free_how_to_convert_knit_crochet.html The quantities of yarn required for knitting are about 30% less than that used for crochet depending on the pattern - but one still needs to be careful when buying the yarn for the project. Better to have too much than not enough and be unable to finish your garment/item. Hope that helps. There are many references on the web about converting knitting to crochet or crochet to knitting.
