The Codex of Hookspeak: Crochet's Secret Language | Ep. 3

Welcome to The Codex of HOOKSPEAK: Crochet's Secret Language

In this episode, ReRe opens the great folklore glossary of crochet—a living lexicon stitched together by humor, frustration, triumph, and mischief. We’ll travel from WIPs to TOADs, face the peril of yarn chicken, and meet the heroes and tricksters who embody these tales: Knights sworn to single quests, Bards who sing stitch by stitch, Dragons hoarding glittering stashes, and Tricksters who yarn-bomb the village square. This is more than slang—it’s myth-making, a language born from circles of friends and amplified by guilds, forums, and hashtags across the world. Crochet’s lexicon is alive, shifting like folklore, growing with every laugh, sigh, and whispered phrase. And the best part? You, too, are part of this saga.
