Kathi Embroidery

The base cloth is preferred to be silk or satin and the thread is cotton or silk floss. The base in black, embroidery is done in crimson, violet golden yellow and white with greens and blues sparingly used. The main stitch is herringbone as it is faster to fill. Other stitches used are an elongated darn and chain-cum-interlacing.

Kathi Embroidery is a little different from the other forms of embroidery in Gujarat
