HOOKED NEEDLE EMBROIDERY

Although cotton thread is generally used in hooked needle embroidery, synthetic threads are increasingly preferred today. This is knitted by creating chains with the help of the hooked needle. A loop is formed with the thread first, then the thread is bound around the knitting needle and passed through the snoop by pulling it. The loops are knitted one after the other in order to form the design. In some designs, the space between the loops is left empty unfilled with different loop numbers and binding types. Thus, new designs are formed with different skips and different-sized holes, as well as with empty loops and full surfaces.
