The core technology of Xiang embroidery is combing hair.
Curling is a late-stage needling method based on mixed needling. Spread the lines. Use a thicker and thinner thread at one end and a thicker and thinner thread at the other end to hide the foot of the thread. The thread embroidered by this stitch is like real hair, with one end growing in the meat and the other end bulging, which is both textured and vivid and natural.
Bristle embroidery is completely different from the well-known embroidery method which takes "flatness, uniformity, brightness and brightness" as the inspection standard.
Its uniqueness lies in: thick thread laying, thin mixed thread, combined with the thickness of thread, densely embroidered layer by layer, and the application of needle is very regular and flexible according to the characteristics of animal hair diameter.
The skill of "curling needle" is that the needle is spread radially, and the line at one end is thicker and thinner; The other end is so dense that the lines are hidden. It makes people feel that thread is like real hair, with one end growing into the meat and the other end curled up.
After embroidery, it has a vivid texture. In embroidery, the needle direction of the "curling needle" is irregular, neither long nor short, and it is intricate and orderly. Embroidery is carried out layer by layer with thick and thin silk threads. In the thickness and density layout of hair, there are faces, layers, gathering, scattering and depth, which makes the embroidered animal hair tall and straight, running through the end, colorful and soft.
