Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Counted-thread embroidery is any embroidery in which the number of warp and weft yarns in a fabric are methodically counted for each stitch, resulting in uniform-length stitches and a precise, uniform embroidery pattern.[1] Even-weave fabric is typically used, producing a symmetrical image, as both warp and weft yarns are evenly spaced.
The opposite of counted-thread embroidery is free embroidery.
