I learned to darn at my nan's kitchen table and never stopped. These days I run a small mending workshop from my garden studio, mostly knitwear, coats and much-loved bags. If it can be saved, I'd rather save it.

Reviews

Hannah · 5/5Moth holes in a wool jumper →

The darns are almost invisible and the whole jumper came back softer than when it went in.

Dev · 5/5Broken zip on a winter coat

Replaced the zip in four days for less than a new coat's postage. Kept me updated the whole way.

Sue · 4/5Torn strap on a leather handbag

Neat, strong repair. Took a little longer than planned while she waited for matching thread, but worth it.

Handy with a needle, spanner or soldering iron?
