Immy Lucas | Sustainably Vegan on Instagram: "Make, mend, repair ♻️ ep.1  I hear we’re taking it slow in 2024 ✨ so here’s a new skill I’ve been learning to repair, mend and take care of my things so they last as long as possible!  I’m learning how to visibly and invisibly mend the holes in my favourite jeans, jumpers and socks. I took time to research brands to make sure they aligned with my values, and spent money to buy these possessions. So learning how to repair and take care of them properly just makes sense.  I used a mini darning loom to repair these jeans, and have a few more projects waiting to go.  I used embroidery thread and created a little pattern. The threads are definitely a little tight but I’m excited to keep on repairing.

Learn How To Weave | Lindsey Campbell on Instagram: "Swipe through for the process!  Be right back - I'm just raiding my closet to patch up any holes, tears or stains I can find!   I have been having so much fun with my darning loom lately. It is the perfect size for a quick weaving snack when I only have a few minutes of time to be creative. This hat had stains on the front and even though it didn't have any holes, I thought a colorful patch would be a cute way to wear my love for weaving.  1. Gather your materials. I used embroidery floss but you could also use a thin string or yarn.  2. Attach the darning loom to the area you want to weave. Cut the floss and warp it between the hooks and the fabric.  3. Move the metal heddles at the top to help you quickly weave back and forth.

How do you decide which darning/mending technique to use? Some questions to consider: -is the patch going to be visible or will it blend in? -what type of garment are you repairing? -how much time do you want to spend mending? When it comes to mending, there is never an exact yes or no answer. It is (almost) always th

Learn How To Weave | Lindsey Campbell on Instagram: "Using a darning loom is so fun! I shared a project with this loom earlier and had lots of questions to show how to use it. Today I sewed a patch on some pants that had a hole in the pocket! What do you think? 

I’m so excited to share more about this technique at @thecraftersbox retreat in May! I taught basket weaving at the retreat last year and am looking forward to heading bach. I’ll be teaching a workshop all about darning looms and will share different patterns/projects you can try when making patches. We’ll be decorating bags with as many patches as we can add, with a view of the ocean, surrounded by creative makers. Can’t wait!"

I've darned quite a few things before, but not knits and not with a mending loom. Since the materials were new to me, I figured it would be best to start with a small project like a woven sock mend. ⁠This was an easy mend that I was able to stitch from start to finish in under 30mins. After mending my sock, I moved on to a sweater.   If you've ever wanted to give a mending loom a try, here's a step by step tutorial on what you'll need as well as how to use it.
