  • Patent number: 5103746
    Abstract: A method of embroidery on a fabric and an embroidery tool enable the production in a simple manner of decorative effect on knitted or other garments. The tool has a tubular needle portion with a handle at one end and a closed curved point at the other. The handle has an entry aperture for continuous work material such as yarn, which passes from the entry aperture through a smooth duct in the tool to an exit aperture formed on the convex surfaces of the curved end adjacent the point. The method of embroidery using the tool comprises the initial steps of passing the point, carrying a loop of yarn, through the fabric from the front to the rear and back again at a different location, the handle remaining at the front, and the repeated steps of retaining the loop of yarn at the front while withdrawing the point from the fabric, and then passing the point, carrying a fresh loop of yarn, through the previous loop, and then through the fabric as before.
