An embroidery style practised in Karnataka. Usually done on saris with blouses to match. From geometric motifs to figurative work, such as birds, animals, temples and plants, the embroidery is scattered over the field and concentrated on the pallav or end-piece. It is done in two types of stitches, the gavanti line or double running stitch, and murgi, the zig-zag done within the darning stitch, akin to gavanti. In both, the two sides are neat and identical. Negi is the ordinary running stitch.
