Hardanger art needle work
Hardanger art needle work by Clara E. Bye, published in Philadelphia in 1904, is a needlework instruction book on Hardanger embroidery, a Norwegian counted-thread technique, aimed at home stitchers. Its pictures show finished square and diamond-shaped cloths with openwork lattices, cutwork borders, and clusters of woven square motifs, useful to a designer seeking geometric lace-like pattern repeats.
