Pronunciation: [kˈʌtwɜːk] (IPA) 
Cutwork, also called whitework, is a type of embroidery where portions of fabric are cut out and the raw edges are embellished with embroidery. While cutwork is a specific technique, there are many synonyms that can be used to describe similar types of needlework. For example, drawn thread work involves carefully pulling out threads from a piece of fabric and then embroidering around the remaining threads. Shadow work also involves embroidering around an area of cut fabric, but the embroidery is done on the reverse side of the fabric and creates a shadow effect on the front. Other synonyms for cutwork include eyelet embroidery, broderie anglaise, and punto in aria.
