The short history of crochet

The origin of crochet is uncertain, although the earliest written records date back to the Middle Ages. Initially, nuns used crochet and taught it to young girls. Due to its growing popularity, crochet spread to ladies' courts in Italy, Spain, and then France. Mademoiselle Riego de la Blanchardière was the first woman to publish a journal on crochet techniques after having taught them to Queen Victoria.
