(Excerpt from The Dictionary of Needlework, Vol. 3: An Enc...)

Excerpt from The Dictionary of Needlework, Vol. 3: An Encyclopaedia of Artistic, Plain, and Fancy Needlework; Emb to Kni Spanish Stitch - This stitch is of two kinds, one where a Cross Stitch is worked on the face of the material and a square on the back; and the other, where a cross enclosed in a square is at the front, and a square at the back. They are only worked when both sides of the material are required to be neat. To work the Cross Stitch: Make an ordinary cross stitch, making the back stitches the top and bottom lines of a square. Re cross the first stitch, and bring the needle out in front, ready to begin the next stitch; three lines of the square at the back are made with each Cross, but they fit into each other, so as to form squares as the work proceeds. To work the second kind: Make a square of stitches in the front of the material, and work a cross stitch -in the open space, passing the thread in horizontal lines from one point to the other at the back of the material. Split Stitch - A stitch much used in ancient Church Embroidery, and in silk Embroideries, to work the faces and hands of figures. It has the appearance of Chain Stitch, but lies atter on the surface, and is more capable of forming the small half-curves, rounds, or lines that follow the contour of the figure, and give the appearance of shading to Embroidery only executed in one colour. It requires to be worked in a frame, and is made as follows: Bring the silk up from the back of the frame, and make a short stitch on the surface, and return the needle to the back. _then bring it up again to the surface through the middle of thelfirst stitch, dividing or splitting the strands of silk' of_ which it is formed by the passage of the needle. Put the needle down again to the back of the work, a short distance above where it came out, and bring it out again to the front in the centre of the second stitch, splitting the strands as before.

Excerpt from The Dictionary of Needlework, Vol. 2: An Encyclopaedia of Artistic, Plain, and Fancy Needlework; Cre to Emb Always work stems in Crewel Stitch and in upright lines; Figs. 174, 175 illustrate two ways of making stems that should be avoided, but which are constantly seen in badly worked embroidery. The rounded appearance given to them by the direction of the stitches serves to raise them from their backgrounds, and gives, instead of the decorative at design that is desired, one in relief. Stems should be simply worked up and down in Crewel Stitch in the manner shown in Fig. 172. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
