"Shi" means to sew with a needle, and "Suyu" means to add color to a garment. In other words, thread is threaded through a needle and stitched from the front and back of the fabric to create pictorial designs or patterns on the front or both sides of the fabric using various techniques. In the narrow sense, it refers to colored thread embroidery, and is the most basic technique of embroidery. In English, it is called embroidery or needle work. Variations include white thread embroidery, black thread embroidery, shadow embroidery, canvas work, embroidery that uses ribbons, cords, beads, spangles, etc. instead of thread, net embroidery that uses lace-like material with gaps instead of cloth, and tulle embroidery.
