Crzette

/kɹəˈzɛt/ noun

Definition

A small triangular or pointed implement or fastening device, possibly used in sewing, fastening, or craftsmanship.

Etymology

Possibly from French 'crochet' (hook) or related to Slavic roots, with diminutive suffix '-ette', though the origin is uncertain and may be a regional or technical craft term.

Kelly Says

When a word's etymology is basically unknown, it's usually because it was a hyper-local craft term or trade jargon that never made it into dictionaries—'crzette' might be the sewing equivalent of slang that died when the trade did.
