i am interested in crocheting, where its a process of creating fabric by interlocking loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials using crochet hooks
That sounds like a nice hobby. What items can be crocheted? 
well you can use materials such as metal, wood, or plastic and they are commonly manufactured and produced in artisan workships

there is a salient difference between crochet and knitting, beyond the implements used for their production
I thought they were the same. What types of things can you crochet?
Tapestry crochet
Tapestry crochet is sometimes called jacquard crochet, intarsia, mosaic, fair isle, and colorwork, but today these terms usually describe different techniques.

Crochet
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'.

The salient difference between crochet and knitting, beyond the implements used for their production, is that each stitch in crochet is completed before the next one is begun
