New! Another excellent book on darning by Japan's visible mending guru, Hikaru Noguchi. This most delightful and useful manual celebrates the humble sock with 39 inspiring examples of visible mending.
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.
Praise for Hikaru's previous books:
"The pictures, diagrams and profiles are so inspiring. Mending clothes is an act of looking after yourself and others. Its essential work that Hikaru does with grace and beauty."
- Celia Pym, shortlisted for the Womens Hour Craft Prize, author of On Mending
"As the environmental impacts of overconsumption become ever more apparent, repair emerges as a powerful political act. This comprehensive compendium provides both instruction and inspiration and is sure to make every reader look at their wardrobe in a whole new light."
- Dr Amy Twigger Holroyd, Associate Professor of Fashion and Sustainability, Nottingham Trent University
"Colourful photography combined with an easily understood visual guide brings this wonderful book to life!"
- Sanae Kido: Textile Surgery
"Hikaru Noguchi has a wonderful and considered approach to visible mending. In her book Darning she explains in great detail how to use a variety of darning and applique techniques, what materials are suitable, and step-by-step instructions. Last but not least, all techniques are accompanied by beautiful pictures for plenty of inspiration to do your own repairs."
