Darning Socks contains a collection of ideas and full step-by-step instructions for applying visible mending to socks, making them stay in use and keeping them out of landfill.
This beautiful new book is translated from the Japanese book by Hikaru Noguchi and offers her usual high level of beautiful photography and inspirational ideas. Hikaru has invented a novel way to make the mends on your socks last even longer, saving you time and energy.
No previous sewing experience is necessary and full instructions are included, from the easy way to thread a needle and choosing the right thread, to the inspirational use of colour and innovative materials for the experienced sewer.

from 12 reviewsI have followed the red dress project over the last few years. It is an inspirational idea that has been executed with such thought and has led to other community projects. The book does not disappoint. Beautiful photos, informative text, sustainable printing and packaging. Well done Quickthorn for producing such a beautiful book.
It's gorgeous, a mini coral bakalite darning mushroom with built in needle storage & a thimble as a cap. : )
