I really just love fixing socks. I think it’s very relaxing and the result is so neat. #mending #speedweve
Photo of a plaid mending patch made on the Speedweve using blue, green and yellow thread.
The edges still challenge me, despite my focused attention.

The sides are looking better, but the top and bottom need improvement.

All my socks are finally getting fixed. This is four socks where I had holes in the heels and toe box area-ish. Idk I’m not a podiatrist.
I have a passion for the maintenance of nice things. This was a fun mindless projects and it’s not a bad way to watch a tv show. I also have no issue adjusting to the different sensations of the sock. It’s nothing like having something in your shoes. #darning #mending #speedweve #floss #thread

This was EXTREMELY annoying but effective - my 1st time using the SpeedWeve tool I impulse purchased a few years ago. These husbeast-work-pants cost $28, the thread was .79, and I did this while playing D&D, so…2 distracted hours. I will get faster. #underconsumption #ifixedit #speedweve
Two fabric patches (fabric is red, gold, and black) that have been stitched in gold with the rice stitch on mustard coloured work pants to cover two small holes.
A blue hoodie that has an in-progress Speedweve loom attached with a pink warp and green weft to cover a tear in the fabric.
Finished repairing my friend’s work pants, and am now working on a Speedweve mend on his hoodie. He said he wanted visible, so bright pink and green it is! 🩷💚

I first heard about Speedweve looms years ago, when they were unavailable in the US, so I hunted one down from Ukraine. Still the best mending tool I've used, and they're being made again and easily available.

I wonder if I'll ever run out of socks to patch, but they give me plenty opportunities to whip out my darning loom! So here's another one for day 18 of the #mendventcalendar 🧦

Here’s my mend for day 4 in @embroideredyeti.bsky.social ‘s #mendventcalendar 🪡
I’m slowly getting used to the darning loom and it’s a lot of fun seeing the progress of it.
