Tagging for #SolarPunkSunday! What a brilliant visible repair! (And wearable art!)

Repair time!

The magnetic clasp on my daughter's bag started to tear through, because it was only anchored on one side to a _very_ thin layer of fabric, so it's time for some embarrassingly over-sewed mending!

I got myself a speedweve #darning loom! I probably could have chosen an easier #mending project than a delicate cashmere blend scarf to try it out on but I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. I still need to work on making neater edges but that’s just practice. #VisibleMending
Eigentlich wollte ich die dünne Stelle im Ärmel der Lieblingsstrickjacke ganz in Ruhe prophylaktisch verstärken - aber nun war Reparatur statt Prophylaxe gefragt. Nun ja, für Handarbeit im schlecht beleuchteten Hotelzimmer ist es akzeptabel. #visiblemending

Tried some visible mending with the honeycomb stitch. It’s a small hole, torn by a cats claw, about 3mm. I used a thin yarn but as a double strand.

The weekend was rainy so I spent some time mending my favorite skirt. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I can confirm there are no holes now. The pocket area is starting to be more patches than skirt, though 🤭

It used to be my daily skirt, then my hiking skirt, then my gardening skirt, now the "let's learn visible mending" skirt. I really like it.

J'ai un peu avancé hier et aujourd'hui en attaquant le vert (il est très désaturé pour aller avec les couleurs du torchon mais du coup on ne le distingue pas des masses du gris...)

The darning will continue until socks improve!
