There are only three ways that I know of to construct fabric by the interlocking of yarns: weaving, knotting, or looping. Crochet is a looping technique in which a single yarn interlocks with itself repeatedly in an endless series of convoluted loops dragged through each other with a hook and resulting in a very bulky fabric. The somewhat torturous self-involvement of this single yarn is a lot like my life and I love it. Most of my early art works were crocheted. |
