Yarn people, textile people : I have found these amazing works. The woman who made them has died, and she never explained what her technique was. Embroidery? Crochet? Can any of you suggest one? Right and wrong sides shown

@HarrietVane @CommonMugwort Thank you for sharing. I did not know that kind of embroidery was popular in Europe, too. Indian aari uses a hooked needle as well. I am curious how similar the techniques are. Is there a German blog or YouTube channel you would recommend? For aari, my go-to is this: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLk0ZnSQbTtVPoN41_Xo9FIlNTuCEX3cez

In my part of the world, this story got barely any coverage. Hence, I am wondering.
