Needlework made by looping thread with a hook (7)

I believe the answer is:

crochet

(Other definitions for crochet that I've seen before include "Genteel pastime" , "Craft product" , "In music, a note equal to half a minim" , "Type of needlework" , "Decorative needlework using hooks" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
