Stitches I found used in Spain

Deshilado - Embroidery on linen or on an even weave fabric. The fabric threads are counted, cut and removed leaving open spaces. Any remaining threads are wrapped to create open designs.

Drawn Thread in Linen - The stitches are pulled in such a way as to draw the thread into a design or pattern.

Punto de Red or Puntillas or Encages, Crochet - This style of crochet is used on the edges of cloths and scarves or between two pieces of fabric. The design is usually open and boxed shaped.

Punto de Cruz, Cross Stitch and Black Work - Small slanted stitches are formed into crosses and used to create a design. This stitch is native to Spain and was first created with black silk thread on linen.

Red de Nudos Planos - Similar to macrame, loose fringe or edges of shawls are tied together in a pattern to create an open netting look.

Lace - Handmade lace edging is made with bobbins and pins held in place on a cushion. The thread is knotted in a complicated pattern to create delicate designs.

Bordar, Embroidery - Embroidery can include multiple stitches and is often the term used generally when describing any needlework.
