Pottery
Pottery is the material from which the pottery ware is made of which major types include earthenware, stoneware and porcelain. The place where such wares are made is also called a pottery. Pottery also refers to the art or craft of the potter or the manufacture of pottery. Pottery is made by forming a clay body into objects of a required shape and heating them to high temperatures.
Basket Weaving
Basket weaving (also basketry, basket making) is the process of weaving unspun vegetable fibers into a basket or other similar form. People and artists who weave baskets are called basket makers and basket weavers. Basketry is made from a variety of fibrous or pliable materials,anything that will bend and form a shape. Examples include pine straw, stems, animal hair, hide,grasses, thread, and wood.
Weaving
Weaving is a method of fabric production in which two distinct sets of yarns or threads are interlaced at right angles to form a fabric or cloth. The other methods are knitting, lace making, felting,and braiding or plaiting. The longitudinal threads are called the warp and the lateral threads are the weft or filling. The method in which these threads are inter woven affects the characteristics of the cloth.Cloth is usually woven on a loom, a device that holds the warp threads in place while filling threads are woven through them. A fabric band which meets this definition of cloth (warp threads with a weft thread winding between) can also be made using other methods, including tablet weaving, back-strap, or other techniques without looms. The way the warp and filling threads interlace with each other is called the weave. The majority of woven products are created with one of three basic weaves: plain weave, satin weave, or twill. Woven cloth can be plain (in one color or a simple pattern), or can bewoven in decorative or artistic designs.
Tatting
Tatting is a technique for handcrafting a particularly durable lace constructed by a series ofknots and loops. Tatting can be used to make lace edging as well as doilies, collars, and other decorative pieces. The lace is formed by a pattern of rings and chains formed from a series of cowhitch, or half-hitch knots, called double stitches, over a core thread. Gaps can be left between the stitches to form picots, which are used for practical construction as well as decorative effect.
Macramé
Macramé or macrame is a form of textile-making using knotting rather than weaving or knitting.Its primary knots are the square knot and forms of “hitching”: full hitch and double half hitches. It was long crafted by sailors, especially in elaborate or ornamental knotting forms, to decorate anything from knife handles to bottles to parts of ships. Materials used in macramé include cords made of cotton twine, linen, hemp, jute, leather or yarn. Cords are identified by construction, such as a 3-ply cord,made of 3 lengths of fiber twisted together.
Crochet
Crochet is a process of creating fabric from yarn, thread, or other material strands using acrochet hook. The word is derived from the French word “crochet”, meaning hook. Hooks can be made of materials such as metals, woods or plastic and are commercially manufactured as well as produced by artisans. Crocheting, like knitting, consists of pulling loops through other loops, but additionally incorporates wrapping the working material around the hook one or more times.
