Covering 12 core techniques, 10 key stitches and 12 projects, explore why we should mend and how to mend a variety of different fabrics using this book.
Demystifying the mending techniques through a directory of stitches and clear step-by-steps, from repairing to reusing and renewing the clothes you love – stitch over tears, dye stains and celebrate a more sustainable life.
By Hand: Visible Mending is for those who want to be less wasteful, more sustainable and add a personal touch to their garments.
