It not only speaks of its Ukrainian origin but also of the particular region in which it was made. The knowing eye could detect where people are from by their clothes. In Ukraine different techniques exist to suit local styles with their own particular patterns and colors. In Ukrainian embroidery, black, red, and white colors are basic, and yellow, blue, and green are supplementary.
