BLACKWORK HORSE 1 MANGALARGA

The blackwork horse is a beginners blackwork kit.

The blackwork horse is worked in blackwork patterns on 16 count or 32 count fabric using embroidery floss.

Working the embroidery: The blackwork embroidery is worked within a tacked outline of the design with a variety of different blackwork stitches.  A three dimensional picture is created by reducing the stitches in the pattern. A large chart is included with the instruction booklet as a reference tool but the embroidery is worked in the Tissue Paper Transfer Method. The patterns are stitched from step-by-step individual diagrams and there are detailed instructions on how to work the embroidery.

I am offering free correspondence and free on going critique for this kit, for more details go to - Free on going critique.

There is a choice of three fabrics to work the blackwork design:

  1. The original embroidery is worked on 16 count heatherfield fabric which is 100% poly acrylic fabric, it is mottled grey with darker grey and gold flecks. It is a lovely natural looking fabric that compliments the variegated embroidery floss that is used to work the blackwork embroidery and is easy to count.

  2. The embroidery can also be worked on 32 count Belfast 100% Linen fabric which is a off-white colour fabric with uneven weave threads (different thicknesses) giving a natural look.

  3. Or 32 count Etamin 100% cotton fabric which is a off-white colour fabric with even weave threads (all threads are the same thickness) which is a nice soft fabric and is easier to see and count compared to the Belfast linen.
