Smocking, traditionally used to adorn countrymen's smocks, is popular with embroiderers. In its simplest form, it is a practical method of controlling fullness by means of stitchery over gathers, but much of its potential as an adaptable decorative technique remains to be fully exploited. This book explores that potential and shows readers how they can design their own smocking patterns. It contains detailed stitch diagrams and 33 charted designs. It also considers both traditional and modern approaches to the craft.
