who invented crotchet?

Answer 1

Actually spelled "crochet". I don't think anyone actually invented it, that it may have developed in several parts of the world simultaneously, and it has been around for thousands of years. It is more durable and less vulnerable to raveling than knitting, and produces a heavier, warmer fabric. It also produces more surface area per hour of working than knitting does. So, suffice it to say that it invented itself...
It has been used by many cultures for repairing fishing nets, weaving reeds and fibers together in basketry, and of course, in wool work.

Answer 2

It was actually invented back in the 1400's as a form of underwear for spanish sailors, hence the crothal region. before this spanish sailors would freeball or commando style it. Wives of the sailors would make a special pair as a going away present to there husbands to remember there wives whilst at sea. However this style of undergarment did not prove to practical as underwear and many sailors through there garments overboard or put them on table as a decoration or mug mat.

Answer 3

If you mean crochet, here's an article I found:

In contrast to knitting, crochet (French, "hook") is a method of working interlocking loops of thread into a chain by means of a slender rod hooked at one end. The work is begun by crocheting a single chain of loops, each new loop being formed by catching the yarn and drawing it through the previous loop. The chain is made to the planned width of the finished piece, the yarn is turned at the end of the chain, and a second chain is crocheted, each new stitch being looped through a stitch in the previous row. Various stitches are possible, and a variety of textures and patterns can be created. Descriptive stitch names include chain, single, double, treble, filet mesh, ribbed afghan, pineapple, popcorn, and slipper.
Little is known of the early history of crocheting. Some ancient cords are thought to have been made by finger crocheting. During the Renaissance, both peasant women and ladies of the court executed crochet work and also knotted work using several strands of thread (macrame), often producing lacelike fabrics. Much early crochet was made with fine, thin thread, producing imitations of European lace; one example is Irish lace, a variety of "crochet lace" introduced into Ireland about 1820 but also made throughout Europe, particularly in the Balkan states. Much modern crochet is executed with soft yarns and used to make garments and bedcoverings. Although crochet can be made by machine, it has traditionally been, and continues to be, a home handcraft. In addition, contemporary fiber artists employ crochet along with other techniques to create large wall hangings and fiber sculptures.

Do you mean the 'crochet' where we make articles like sweaters, shawls, table-clothe or did u mean something else. i searched and came up with something other than that of making crochet articles with the help of one needle and thread, But I do believe that it started in Spanish, I'm not sure but I recall reading something about it long back.

Luckily, they would by now be dead and buried - whoever it was - they have a lot to answer for!
