Spanish blackwork is a form embroidery using black thread.
Any black thread can be used, but firmly twisted threads give a better look than embroidery floss.
Traditionally blackwork is stitched in silk thread on white or off-white linen or cotton fabric.
Historically, blackwork was used on shirts and chemises or smocks in England from the time of Henry VIII.
