Blackwork Napkin \u2013 Black \u2013 Natural \u2013 Tille\u2019s is an embroidery kit with an earthy, calm expression. The natural (unbleached) linen gives the napkin a soft, warm tone that pairs beautifully with the black blackwork embroidery. The result is a napkin that feels relaxed and elegant at the same time.<\/p>\n
The finished napkin measures approx. 31 \u00d7 31 cm and is ideal for a bread basket, a small breakfast table, or as a discreet detail at each place setting. It is designed as a functional napkin meant to be used\u2014again and again.<\/p>\n
The embroidery is worked in blackwork using running stitch. The pattern consists of two borders that run across the napkin and meet in the centre. Here, a simple, graphic intersection is formed, giving the embroidery structure and balance. The technique is classic, while the expression remains light and contemporary.<\/p>\n
This version uses Natural Zweigart linen with 11.2 threads per cm. The natural colour adds warmth and depth and softens the contrast to the black thread compared to bleached linen. The embroidery is stitched with DMC coton a broder, which is non-divisible and makes the work straightforward and enjoyable.<\/p>\n
The edges are finished with a hem stitched using the included linen thread. This creates a narrow, discreet edge that suits the napkin\u2019s calm expression. The instructions guide you step by step, ensuring a neat and even finish.<\/p>\n
This napkin is a lovely project for embroiderers who enjoy calm stitching and a clear, usable result. It also makes an excellent gift\u2014on its own or paired with additional napkins\u2014for anyone who appreciates handmade details at the table.<\/p>\n\n
