Darning time!

#darning #woollysocks

Two socks I can wear again.

Some photos from a fun darning workshop we taught a few nights ago. I cut up an old pair of socks and punched holes in them and our students fixed the holes beautifully.

If you're near Windsor, ON, and want to learn this, the next class is in February and will be open for registration later this week at https://asil.ca/shop

おはようございます。

昨日は旦那のシャツ袖のボタン部分の布が劣化して穴が空いたのでダーニングで繕いました。横糸を白、縦糸を水色にしてシャツの布地となるべくなじむ色合いに。
白いシャツ用ボタンを付けたらさらにお直しはさほど目立たなくなるはずです。

A skill unlocked: darning. I realize that this is not aesthetic. But it is practical, I did it myself and avoided tossing the socks. They were made domestically, not overseas. 😎 #darning #mending #lesswaste

It's #FestivalOfRepair Fortnight in #Swansea!
Two weeks (+ a day, we can't count!) of #repair themed events including 2 #RepairCafes - woo hoo 😉

I'll be at the Drop In #Darning this Thurs afternoon, #RepairCafe this Sat, and the Love The Shape You're In event next Wed.

(If you'd like to come along to these, but are nervous about arriving alone/not knowing what to expect/other reasons, please do reply or DM for a chat 😃)

Very pleased with how these freshly darned socks looks and feel. Hope the mend lasts longer with the extra linen patch...

#darningSocks is my least favorite kind of #mending but I recently learned about the honeycomb darn and finally I've done these socks. (They're handknitted by, I think, my mom from natural dyed wool, that used to be different shades of pink, but mellowed out over the years. I got these socks roughly 14 years ago.)
