Two of the most common types of handicrafts include crocheting and knitting. Handicraft products are produced with high concentration and hand-eye coordination. They depict the culture and tradition of the place where they were originated due to their distinct qualities. In recent years, handicrafts have gained traction as some of these products also add aesthetic and decorative value.
