Blackwork embroidery is a historical style of embroidery which creates pictures filled with beautiful geometric patterns stitched on Aida fabric. It's been given a modern twist in recent years and the succulent design on this kit brings it right up to date. The kit comes with the option to choose from 3 sizes of designs, from small to large, with increasing complexity - so you can choose which to do based on your experience, time and space on your wall!
This type of embroidery is perfect for lovers of cross stitch and beginners to embroidery as it only uses one stitch! The entire design is made up of back stitch, and you count the squares on the chart to work out which hole in the aida you need to bring your needle up and where to take it down. It’s a lovely, repetitive craft as you create the intricate geometric patterns and the finished result is just stunning.
This kit includes:
aida fabric, big enough for the large design (or both the smaller designs)
8 inch embroidery hoop
threads
2 needles
full instructions
charted patterns broken down into layers to isolate the outline and detail for ease of stitching
Blackwork Cheat Sheet to get you started with the technique
This kit comes in a box measuring approximately 33x23x2.5cm, and the finished hoop measures approximately 20cm in diameter.
