The Royal School of Needlework teaches hand embroidery to the
highest standard, developing techniques in new and innovative ways.
This series of Essential Stitch Guides provides expert tuition on a
variety of techniques. In this guide to blackwork, Graduate
Apprentice and tutor, Becky Hogg, shows how to develop many
different patterns from the basic blackwork stitches, using
detailed instructions and beautiful examples of traditional and
contemporary embroideries. There is a fascinating look at the
history of blackwork, a guide to the materials needed, and then a
detailed look at the stitches used. These are then developed into a
huge variety of beautiful patterns, and finally there is a guide to
varying the look of these patterns through the use of different
shading techniques. There are inspiring embroideries throughout the
book, both historical pieces and contemporary works by the author
and other RSN apprentices.
