Crewelwork uses crewel wool (a loosely twisted wool) to create expressive, dimensional embroidery. Combining varied stitches (split, stem, satin, French knots), you build images with rich texture and shading. Popular for botanical motifs, this versatile embroidery works on linen, felt, or other natural fibers. Results range from delicate florals to bold, contemporary designs.

    Source crewel wool in a basic color palette and even-weave linen
