Crockhet is an activity of creating textile by interlocking loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials utilizing a crochet hook. The name comes from the French term crochet, signifying 'small hook'. They are made of materials such as material, wood, or plastic material and are produced commercially and produced in artisan workshops. The salient difference between crochet and knitting, beyond the implements used for his or her production, is that all stitch in crochet is completed before proceeding with another one, while knitting will keep a large number of stitches open at a time. (Variant varieties such as Tunisian crochet and broomstick ribbons keep multiple crochet stitches open up at a time.
Basic materials required for crochet are a hook and some type of materials which will be crocheted, most commonly yarn or thread. Yarn, one of the most popular materials for crocheting has varying weights which need to be taken into account when following patterns. Additional tools are convenient for keeping stitches counted, measuring crocheted fabric, or making related accessories. For example cardboard cutouts, which is often used to make tassels, fringe, and many other items; a pom-pom group, used to make pom-poms; a tape solution and a measure solution, both used for measuring crocheted work and counting stitches; a row counter-top; and occasionally cheap rings, which are used for special tasks. In recent years, yarn selections have migrated beyond synthetic and vegetable and animal-based fibres to include bamboo, qiviut, hemp, and banana stalks, to name a few.
