crocheted
Made with hooks
Crocheted describes something made by crochet—the craft of creating fabric by interlocking loops of yarn with a hooked needle: a crocheted blanket, crocheted doilies.
The word often evokes handmade, homespun quality: She wore a crocheted shawl her grandmother made.
Pronounced with two syllables (cro-SHAYED) or three (cro-SHAY-ed).
