First time doing mending using a speed weave. I'm practicing on old and worn out dish towels. I made some mistakes, but the process is fun!!

Still learning #speedweave #visiblemending

This hole was originally repaired by someone who tried to just iron on a patch that very quickly started coming apart. So I decided to do a patch myself this time.

No job pays me enough to replace my pants just to keep up appearances, so I've been #mending most of my clothes. And because I am not good enough to be subtle, I am turning into the skid and going with #visiblemending. Mostly I've been reinforcing with a very clumsy #sashiko, but I just got a #speedweave that I've started using very poorly to make sort of #darned patches. I am not very good at wrapping up a patch, but I'm sure I'll get better. If I can't afford to not dress like a #trashmammal I am gonna make it in your face and everyone's problem.
