I've sharpened my skills in HTML/CSS/JS now i wish to go with some front-end framework. Which one would you suggest? What are cons and pros of them? Also what JS library would you suggest? As far as I know you should stick to only one library because of performance issue?
For a CSS framework, I would suggest Kube as it's an awesome and responsive grid framework. Or you could use 960gs (another grid layout stylesheet).
For JS, I would suggest jQuery and CoffeeScript (Note that the latter is a preprocessor that gets compiled into JS).
For other such preprocessors/libraries, just try looking in the gear menu of a new CodePen pen like so: http://imgur.com/BhZ4zIZ. You can find others there.
Hey man, as far as junky stuff that makes your life easier on the web i stick with simple jQuery. The SCSS/SASS/LESS stuff i haven't gotten into [i'm probably behind the curve] but i don't really mind. If you want to challenge yourself, or maybe expand outside of the website realm, check out a post i made a while back. It's about using PhoneGap to create simple mobile apps. If you know HTML && CSS && JS than you are golden. Once you feel more comfortable, you can jump into the native code whether that be Java || Obj C.

Thanks in advance.

Is it really worth to use framework?

Check out my rant about the PhoneGap API.
A framework could be nice for prototyping but for production all you really need is normalize.css and your own custom css.
And for JS, jQuery as srig99 suggested, from the Google CDN.
Foundation w/ backbone.js
Normalize.css if you feel so.
Sass & Compass.
jQuery.
If you ever need a robust grid system, I'd recommand CSSWizardry-grids.
