5.0 out of 5 stars This book still works well, June 19, 2011
There are over 200 pages. The pictures are glossy color. With full descriptions and diagrams in the embroidery stitching vernacular. The chapters or pages are sorted by the different types of stitches.

If you are just casually interested there is a great introductory with history and descriptions of what make Hardangar embroidery unique.

"Hardangar embroidery takes its name from the area surrounding the Hardangar fiord in western Norway."

This review is from: The Anchor Book of Hardanger Embroidery (The Anchor Book Series) (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful guide to ribbon embroidery. The written instructions are short, simple and easy to follow. The diagrams are large, in color and there is a wide variety of stitches. This book is small so it can go with you anywhere.
