500 Needlepoint Patterns - Anaîs Hervé

From David & Charles, 500 Needlepoint Patterns by Anaîs Hervé is a paperback guide to creating repeat needlepoint designs, with a focus on Bargello stitch and its variations, including flame stitch and Florentine stitch. Designed to be approachable yet rewarding, it brings together patterns that can be repeated to cover any size canvas, whether you follow the suggested colourways or adapt them to your own palette.

Across 160 pages, this compendium explores regular, straight stitches worked with a consistent offset, alongside additional stitches adapted to canvas to help you broaden your technique and build more complex results. The patterns lend themselves to a wide range of creative projects: frame finished pieces for display, or incorporate your stitching into cushions, bags, cases and other practical makes. With 500 patterns to choose from, it offers plenty of scope for both simple, repeatable motifs and more ambitious designs.
