Qual é a diferença entre tricô e crochê?

Tricô é a criação de material, normalmente fora do fio, mas realmente pode ser feita de qualquer coisa – fio, algodão, plástico, etc. It is a series of horizontal parallel courses of yarn, which are joined by interlocking loops in which a short loop of one course of yarn is wrapped over the bight of another course. It can be done by hand or by machine. Tricô Mão usa uma agulha circular, 2 agulhas, 4 ou 5 agulhas, dependendo do estilo.

Normalmente você lançar uma série de loops de um uma agulha e, em seguida, cada loop é a base para a criação de um laço para a próxima linha. Você pode usar a segunda agulha para alcançar através do laço na primeira agulha, pegar o fio, and pull it through and capture it on the second needle. When all of the loops are worked, você ligar o trabalho em torno (sobre) e começar de novo do outro lado, se você estiver trabalhando em agulhas retas (trabalho plana). Knitting can also be done in the round using either a circular needle or double pointed needles (4 ou 5).

Working the loops creates a tube of material. Another method of “knitting” is using a knitting loom – which is a series of pegs or nails to hold the loops. The next round of stitches is wound around and then each stitch is worked using a small hook shaped tool. Machines use a row of needles where the yarn is laid flat over the tops of open needles and then each needle is closed and the yarn is pulled through. Crocheting is done with a single needle with a hook at the end.

Material is created by creating a chain of loops and then going back into each loop with the hook and pulling through a new loop to create the next row of stitches. There are many variations on how the new loops are formed from a simple single crochet – pulling one loop through the old loop until there are two loops on the hook and then pulling another loop through those two loops until a single loop remains on the hook – a dupla de agudos – que funciona através de uma série de loops 7 vezes.
