Two minims are equal to one semibreve which is why they’re called half notes as they’re a half of a whole note. Then each minim can be split into two crotchets (quarter notes). Two crotchets are equal to one minim and four crotchets are equal to one semibreve (which is why they’re called quarter notes as they’re a quarter of a whole note).

What is a crochet in music?

Depends... A crochet is what you would add to a note to shorten its duration, as in that little thing you would add to make a quarter note an eight note, or an eighth a sixteenth. etc... Or in french "une croche" is the name for a 8th, so I'm not sure which you're refering to. Hope this helps ! P.S. : Crochet in french (in a non-musical context) translates either to a hook, a check mark or a type of knitting (as in, a sweater made all of wool, by hand with a special knitting technique called "au crochet"). It can also refer to a square bracket. Isin't french wonderful? :)

No, you can only crochet with a crochet hook. Answer Crochet is done with crochet hooks (they come in many sizes) not knitting neeldes. But you can also use your fingers (finger crochet) or there is also some thing called Knooking which uses a tool that has a crochet hook on one end and a knitting needle point on the other.
