Early-style Hardanger is not often seen outside of Norway, but is
quite distinct from contemporary Hardanger. This historical style
of embroidery has traditionally been used on the women's clothing
in the Hardangerfjord region, and was designed to imitate
needlemade lace of the 1600s and 1700s. Feel the satisfaction and
sense of accomplishment of making your own traditional-style
Norwegian whitework embroideries using whitework specialist, Yvette
Stanton's clear instructions. There are 10 varied projects with a
range of contemporary applications, including a blouse with
embroidered cuffs and collar, soft furnishings for the home, table
linen, and small articles suitable to give as gifts. You will
discover what makes early-style Hardanger different from
contemporary Hardanger. The historical and cultural information,
including many photos of historical examples of Hardanger, helps to
place the embroidery within its cultural context. The left- and
right-handed step-by-step stitch and technique instructions are
easy to follow, making it easy to learn. You will learn to avoid
problems and have the self-assurance to fix any mistakes you make.
Yvette Stanton's expert instructions will help you on your way to
making beautiful early-style Hardanger embroidery.
