Crochet is the technique of making a looped fabric from a continuous length of yarn, using a single hook. The word ‘crochet’ itself derives from the French ‘croc,’ meaning a hook (or crook); an old scottish name for crochet is ‘shepherd’s knitting.’ It is one of the most portable and flexible of crafts, requiring only a hook and some yarn. Once you have mastered the basic techniques, you can create a fascinating variety of effects.”
