This weeks pattern:
This again is a motif for crewel work. Crewel work in India is known as Aari work-the chain stitch embroidery done with a hook known as Aari. In this type of embroidery, mostly wool is used (in Kashmir) and silk or cotton threads in other places. It can also be done by ordinary needle but the stitch with Aari is more fine and beautiful.
The above motif is inspired by the designs from Kashmir.
Satin Stitch and Running Stitch or Kanta Stitch Herring Bone Stitch, French Knots can also be used.
