Whois & Analysis for irarott.com

Crochet is a process of creating fabric by interlocking loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials using a crochet hook.

The name is derived from the French term "crochet", meaning small hook.

These are made of materials such as metal, wood, or plastic and are manufactured commercially and produced in artisan workshops.

The salient difference between crochet and knitting, beyond the implements used for their production, is that each stitch in crochet is completed before proceeding with the next one, while knitting keeps a large number of stitches open at a time.

(Variant forms such as Tunisian crochet and broomstick lace keep multiple crochet stitches open at a time).

Quilting is the process of sewing two or more layers of fabric together to make a thicker padded material, usually to create a quilt or quilted garment.

Typically quilting is done with three layers: the top fabric or quilt top, batting or insulating material and backing material, but many different styles are adopted.

A knitting pattern is a set of written instructions on how to construct items using knitting.

A hat is a head covering which is worn for various reasons, including protection against the elements, ceremonial reasons such as university graduation, religious reasons, safety, or as a fashion accessory.

In the past, hats were an indicator of social status.

In the military, hats may denote nationality, branch of service, rank, and/or regiment.

Police typically wear distinctive hats such as peaked caps or brimmed hats, such as those worn by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Some hats have a protective function.

As examples, the hard hat protects construction workers' heads from injury by falling objects and a British police Custodian helmet protects the officer's head, a sun hat shades the face and shoulders from the sun, a cowboy hat protects against sun and rain and a Ushanka fur hat with fold-down earflaps keeps the head and ears warm.

Some hats are worn for ceremonial purposes, such as the mortarboard, which is worn (or carried) during university graduation ceremonies.

Some hats are worn by members of a certain profession, such as the Toque worn by chefs.

Some hats have religious functions, such as the mitres worn by Bishops and the turban worn by Sikhs.
