Which craft involves knotting threads into patterns to make decorative articles?

What's 'Croshering'. Did you mean Crocheting?

tried to learn crochet and knitting. Never could get even stitches.

I could only knit 1 or 2 lines when my family tried to teach me as a kiddo but I got rug hooking right away.. rug hooking is creating that knot with a tool. would be fun to try macrame

Tatting would have been another correct answer. It involves making small knots that are very much like macrame, but only one type of knot.

Dalia, crochet uses a hook to make and connect loops.

Crochet didn't do the same?
