CREWEL HAND EMBROIDERY
Kashmir
Crewel work is famous throughout the world because of the
high quality of specialized hand embroidery done by Hook (
Ari ) on handwoven cotton cloth.
Crewel
is basically similar to Chainstitch in its artistic technique
but here the motifs, mainly stylised flowers, donot cover
the entire surface, and the background is not embroidered
upon.
