Crochet is a process of creating textiles by
using a crochet hook to interlock loops of yarn, thread, or strands of
other materials. The name is derived from the French term
crochet, meaning 'small hook'. Hooks can be made from a variety
of materials, such as metal, wood, bamboo, or plastic. The key
difference between crochet and knitting, beyond the implements used for
their production, is that each stitch in crochet is completed before the
next one is begun, while knitting keeps many stitches open at a time.
