We can list a number of craft work but basically there are around five types of craft. These are the textile, Decorative, Paper, Functional and Fashion. These crafts vary from each other based on nature, use of material as well as the purpose for which they are made.
Textile craft:
These include any type of craft where you work with fabric, yarn, plant, animal or synthetic fibers and surface design. Some examples are knitting, quilting, weaving and dyeing. Many of these could obviously also fall into the decorative or fashion crafts categories, since the finished good is sold as a sweater or wall hanging. However, they are technically textile crafts since it all starts with the fabric. Textiles have been a fundamental part of humans since the beginning but the methods have been enormously expanded.
