This book was a little advanced for a beginner.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Traditional Hardanger Embroidery (Dover Needlework) (Paperback)
I absolutely loved the designs but they were way too advanced for a beginner like me. I would like to see step-by-step instructions or a few samplers included with the harder patterns.

Antique Hardanger Reprints,
This review is from: Traditional Hardanger Embroidery (Dover Needlework) (Paperback)
This is an excellant book for an adventurous novice and a delight for the advanced Hardanger enthusiast. There are no graphs but the pictures are clear and numerous, and there are some directions and close-up pictures of unusual motifs. The style of the work is unusual, densely rich and complex. For the advanced stitcher, a look at a different style of Hardanger and for the novice, an attainable goal to shoot for!

Older Hardanger Styles,
By A Customer
This review is from: Traditional Hardanger Embroidery (Dover Needlework) (Paperback)
This book is an excellent source of older style Hardange patterns. While there are no graphs, the pictures are clear enough that the Hardanger stitcher with some experience can easily handle the designs, which are typically more complex and more densely decorated than the current trends in Hrdanger. A must have for a Hardanger junkie!
