<p>68.239.67.254: </p> <hr /> <div>In the [[embroidery]] technique of '''underside [[couching]]''', also known as Opus Anglicanum (English Work)thread (often [[gold]]) is laid on the surface of the ground fabric, couching threads are then passed over it. As each couching stitch is worked over the [[gold]] thread, the needle is carefully re-inserted into the hole in the ground fabric that the needle created on the way out.<br /> <br /> The couching thread is pulled tight and a tiny loop of the gold thread from the surface is pulled through the hole in the ground fabric to the underside (thus giving the technique its name).<br /> <br /> This creates a hinge in the gold thread, allowing the fabric to bend and giving it a great flexibility. Fabric worked with [[gold]] thread in '''underside [[couching]]''' has much more drape than fabric with surface couched gold, thus making it a much better technique for working objects which will be worn, such as [[ecclesiastical]] [[vestment]]s.<br /> <br /> <br /> The main ground fabrics used in '''underside [[couching]]''' are linen and silk. Silk thread is the prefered couching thread which is waxed with Bees wax.</div>
