Suzani from Uzbekistan, mirror embroidery from India, oya from Turkey...traditional handicrafts handed down from all over Asia never cease to fascinate handicraft fans.

In Bayan-Ulgii, located on the western edge of Mongolia, a nomadic tribe called ``Kazakhs'' still lives and engages in livestock farming.
They have preserved and developed many unique cultures, including nomadism, falconry, music, and ornamentation.
Beautiful embroidery is created by Kazakh people for their beloved families.
Locally, it is used as a wall hanging cloth (tus kis), and its bold design and vivid colors are overwhelmingly beautiful.

This book is the world's first Kazakh embroidery technique book with designs, and introduces everything from small and simple motifs to large designs that combine multiple motifs, all with designs.
The basic method of making is explained in an easy-to-understand manner with photos and explanations, and covers a wide range of ways to arrange it into clothes and accessories you already have.

The bold design may seem difficult at first glance, but the technique itself is very simple.
The embroidery frame can be made using canvas frames for art supplies, and the embroidery needles are crochet hooks for lace knitting, so even beginners can start embroidery with confidence.

This is an archival version that allows fans of handicrafts and crafts from around the world to enjoy the beautiful photographs and cultural background of the local area while actually making their own works, and can also be used as a cultural resource.
