Hardanger embroidery must be made on a material of which the warp and woof threads
are the same thickness and evenly spaced in weaving.
All Hardanger work is done by counting threads of the cloth.
The solid embroidery or ornamental stitches are always made with a heavy thread for
which size 5 T. B. C. Coton Perle, sizes 2 and 3, NUN'S Eleo Perle Hardanger Twist and
Saxonia Embroidery Thread are especially adapted.
The openwork is made of finer twisted threads such as No. and No. 1 NUN'S Eleo
Perle Hardanger Twist.
Best results are obtained by using a frame or embroidery hoops when making solid or
ornamental stitches.
The cutting of threads and the openwork must be made out of the frame or hoops, for
when the material is stretched tight it is difficult to draw the threads and to weave them
together.
THE SETTING.
Squares of straight stitches are made over as many threads of the material as you cut
away later. These squares of solid embroidery are made all around and serve as a border
to the openwork. This is called a set-
ting.
Make 5 straight stitches covering
4 double threads if 4 double threads of
the material are to be cut and drawn,
or 7 straight stitches if 6 double
threads are drawn. The stitches are al-
ways parallel with the threads that
are to be cut off and drawn.
Fig. 1 shows the setting of a square.
The vertical edges are bordered by
squares of horizontal stitches the hori-
;

zontal edges, by squares of vertical


stitches. Having finished the squares
take work from frame and cut threads
of the material which are to be re-
moved and draw them out. Cut close
to the setting stitches.

Fig. 2 shows plain woven bars made of alternated darning stitches. The needle is
brought up between the center threads, down over the left half, up through the center and
over right half, etc. This figure shows the appearance of the square in Fig. 1 after some
of the bars have been woven.
Fig. 2-A shows bars woven in the same way as in Fig. 2, but with threads drawn from
cloth in only one direction.
Fig. 3. Woven bars ornamented with
post picots as shown in Fig. 3 add much to
the appearance of Hardanger Embroidery
and are not more difficult to make than plain
woven bars.
Weave the bars same as in Fig. 2. Hav-
ing made stitch to the right of bar, twist
thread around needle twice with the left
hand, insert point of needle same as when
making left stitch, draw loop thread up so
as to bring picot close to bar, draw needle
through and make right picot in the same
way, or if picots are desired only on one
side of bar, continue the plain weaving.

Fig. 3.

Fig. 3-A shows post picot bars and weav-


ing same as in previous figure but in a more
open design, accomplished by drawing out
more threads.

woven bars. The plain bars are ornamented
with loop stitches. After all bars have been
woven, start in the corner of square of plain
mtttt MiiiMliilWMifciii woven bars and loop a thread to next corner,
twist thread over loop twice and make next
Fig. 4. loop.
Fig. 5 shows groundwork. Make setting stitches
then fill in groundwork which is made over 3
first,
double threads each way. Begin by bringing needle
point up at upper right corner of first three double
threads. Down at upper left corner, up at lower
right, down at upper right, up at lower left, down
at upper left, up at lower right, down at lower left.
Repeat to end of row. then turn work and begin

at lower left, down at upper left, up at lower right,
down at lower left, up at lower left of next square,
