In fact, Crochet also known as knitting, is winding a thread with small needles that have a hooked shape known as yarns, which are usually wool, silk, or cotton. It's a favorite technique for many needle workers, because its yarn stitches allow you to create beautiful home decor accessories from tablecloths and bedspreads to doilies and delicate edgings.
