Visible Repairs for the Perfectly Imperfect Things We Love by Noriko Misumi
Simply by applying a few easy sewing, darning, felting, or crocheting techniques, as well as some sashiko and other favorite embroidery stitches, you can repair your favorite pieces in a transformative way.
Along with her own philosophy of mindfulness and Wabi-Sabi mending, author Noriko Misumi teaches you how to:
Repair any kind of fabric that is torn, ripped, or stained--whether knitted or woven. Work with damaged flat or curved surfaces to make them aesthetically pleasing again. Create repairs that blend in, as well as bold or whimsical visible repairs. Darn your handmade or expensive gloves, sweaters, and socks to make them look great again
The joy of working with your hands and the personal artistry you discover within yourself lie at the heart of this book. While nothing lasts forever, there's pleasure and purpose in appreciating age and imperfection. Joyful Mending allows you to surround yourself with the things that truly give you joy, whether they were given to you by a loved one, picked up in your travels, or simply have a special place in your heart.
