soil gremlinWould you like to know how to do honeycomb darning? Well, I made a little video.
mariahMore darning adventures! Machine-darned my favorite jeans this time. The thigh rub area (ladies know how it is).
I swear this thread was a perfect color match on the spool 😅 it's a little pale on the fabric but hopefully eyes aren't drawn to my crotch too much because of it #darnit #clothingrepair
Sunday project: first time darning!
Found some *magically* matching thread to my bf's patagonia climbing pants in my thread hoard. Took a few hours but they're good as new now (maybe better)!
Also fixed a frayed pocket seam while at it. Not my straightest line ever 😅

The second method I tried was to recreate a knit pattern by pulling the repair yarn through the worn fabric, stitch by stitch. Took a while to figure out a good technique, but I eventually got a slow but steady routine using two knitting needles to hold the stitches and a crochet hook to work them.
The patch still has decent stretch & flex, and I like the look of it, although I'd like the start & end edges to be more symmetrical: either both neatly edged, or both subtle.

First attempt at using my new knitting skills & supplies to repair an existing garment.
The elbows on a favourite cozy cardigan were worn thin, but not quite holes. I tried a repair technique I've seen others post, criss-crossing long stitches to build up a decorative woven pattern. It was fun to do, and does look neat, but on a patch this size the result is very thick, and pulls at the sides (the shape was originally a diamond, not a cross). Or maybe I was doing it wrong.

Our kid made up something back in elementary school that worked very well as a #curseWord but I can't think of what it was right now.
Naomi PThat whole section was getting kind of thin, so I sewed running stitch back and forth in one direction to reinforce it, and then I did a woven darn on the small hole using the yarn from the running stitch as the warp.
