We all have that favourite pair of jeans or even lucky socks that
we treasure, no matter how baggy or worn they might become. In the
movement against throw-away culture and fast fashion, learn how to
pick up a needle and rediscover the forgotten techniques and the
joy of mending. In Visible Mending, Arounna Khounnraj explores why
we should mend, and how to mend a variety of different fabrics.
Work through the book to discover how to repair forgotten pieces
and give worn-out clothes a new life. Today, mending has become an
extension to making. Mending is about returning value to something,
an opportunity to decorate, emphasize details and express identity
by repurposing and reusing. Illustrated step-by-step instructions
will demystify mending techniques that can be easily applied to old
items to give them a fresh, modern look. Each of the projects
examine how to repair, reuse and renew the clothes you love, from
patching jeans, embroidering over tears to dyeing to hide stains
and using the Japanese art of Sashiko. Visible Mending is for those
who want to learn how to make the most of their wardrobes, be less
wasteful, more sustainable and add a personal touch to their
garments.
