Openwork is a style or technique of decoration in art, craft, jewellery, and textile. In textiles, it refers to any fabric or material featuring patterns of openings or holes. The technique can be produced using various methods including knitting, lace-making, needle lace, cutwork, drawn thread work, and more. The open spaces or holes can form a repeating design or a more random pattern, often contributing to the aesthetic and functional properties of the material.
