Crochet is a textile technique that is performed with a crochet hook (also called crochet hook) and yarn. Crochet can be used for clothes, table cloths and curtains. Many of the terms in crochet are also used in knitting. The effect is a relatively new textile technology and there is no historical evidence for the technology until the late 18th century. At the end of the 18th century, crocheting became an industry in poor Ireland, copying knotted patterns and turning them into crochet. In the handicraft movement in Sweden, the technology was long disapproved and one of the movement's founders, Lilli Zickerman, described the technology as reprehensible when it was possible to carry it out half-lying.
