One of the major features of Hardanger embroidery is its cutwork, and within that cutwork there are myriad stitches that can be used to embellish and decorate. This book brings together the widest range of Hardanger filling stitches ever compiled. It includes both traditional and contemporary stitches, from the very simple right through to the incredibly complicated, all broken down into clear, step-by-step instructions with diagrams for every step. There are colour-coded left-handed (red) and right-handed (blue) instructions for every stitch, and the step-by-step instructions are easy to follow, whether you're a learner who works best by seeing the illustrations or reading the words, or both.
