Needle work

Needlework

is a broad term for the handicrafts of decorative sewing and textile arts. Anything that uses a needle for construction can be called needlework. The definition may expand to include related textile crafts such as a crochet hook or tatting shuttles.

Similar abilities often transfer well between different varieties of needlework, such as fine motor skill and a knowledge of textile fibers. Some of the same tools may be used in several different varieties of needlework. For instance, a needle threader is useful in nearly all needlecrafts.

On Nilfeheim for example, needlework is associated with fine embroideries and the skillfulness of creating elaborate tapestries and picturesque scenes are the hallmark of Nilfeheim women of high clans.
