These various names include: Holbein stitch, Spanish stitch, double running stitch, kasuti stitch, and more! In Tudor England during the 16th century, it had been referred to as Spanish stitch, until King Henry VIII divorced his first wife, Catherine of Aragon (who was Spanish). After that, the name blackwork was adopted for use to describe this particular type of embroidery.
