Còrd Embroidery (Fig. 65)
The lower tension is again tightened and the work
is stretched between the embroidery hoops. Outline
the pattern with plain stitching (width of bight set
at 0). The figures of the pattern are outlined with
stitches, as is being done to a woman's blouse in
Fig. 65, and, after completion the figures are cut out.
The width of bight is set between V
2
and 2 mm. for
outlining, and with the aid of the double cord guide
sew in the cord.
Richelieu work is done in a similar manner. For this
the small ribs in the pattern are stitched after the
n ' •

darning. When this is done the ribs are covered with
IV

mm. width of bight. To do this it is merely neces­
sary to guide the ribs slowly between the needle
vibrations.
