Crochet is a textile craft that

involves using a hooked needle to

intertwine and loop together fiber
(in most cases, yarn). It’s used to
make a whole range of things,
from bags and blankets to toys and
tea cosies.

HOOKS
There are five different parts of a crochet
hook: 
 The handle – the long length that you
hold on the furthest side from the hook
 The thumb rest – a wider, depressed
section of the shaft where you rest your
thumb
 The shaft – the consistent length
between the thumb rest and the throat
 The throat – the part of the shaft that
slopes down towards the hooked point
 The point – the very end of the hook

 Types of yarn
Wool
- If you’re an absolute beginner, wool is probably your best bet. This is largely
down to how stretchy it is. Because of its elasticity, you can untie it relatively
easily if you make a mistake.
Acrylic
- popular choice among crochet enthusiasts. Not only is it cheap, but it’s also
durable (you can typically wash it in the washing machine) and versatile
cotton
- Because of its inelasticity, cotton yarn is slightly more difficult to work with
than wool. So, it’s not usually recommended for absolute beginners. 
TYPES OF FIBRES
Yarn- thicker and is usually
woven together to create
fabric or rope.
Thread- thinner and is used
mainly for sewing and
embroidery.
Crochet Thread- a little
ticker than a thread, but a
lot thinner than a yarn.
