Rushnyky, Intricate and Cross-Stitch

Click to see more detail...


The most amazing example of the skill and tradition of the rushnyk is displayed in the intricate cross-stitch designs from the Trans-Carpathian Hutsul area. Dona by Lilya Katzenseva and Ludmilla Gandzha, this cross-stitch pattern can take one woman almost a month, working 8 hours a day, to complete. The simpler design from Dniepropetrovsk utilizes the traditional red and black in an elegant cross-stitch, while the Ivano-Frankivsk pattern echoes the woven belts and accessories common in the Carpathian Mountain tradition.
