Have you been looking for a way to add the visual appeal of styles like sashiko mending and visible mending to your projects? Maybe some of your favorite clothes need a little love (ours always do!) and you want to learn how to easily darn socks or mend a hole in a sweater?
The Katrinkles Darning & Mending Loom Kit includes all of the tools you need to repair a hole in a knitted garment, making it easy to do it yourself. Follow the enclosed simple instructions and you’ll be mending clothing and accessories in no time! Thanks to the unique construction of our Darning Loom, accomplishing more creative or complicated mends is easier than with a traditional darning egg or darning mushroom.
This big (and Wild Hand branded!) Darning Loom is ideal for weaving patches over large holes in sweaters, blankets, and even over the knees of jeans. Its three heddles have three teeth sizes and are longer and wider than the ones in the Expansion Pack. Included in the BIGGER Darning Loom Kit:
-
1 x Bigger Darning Loom
-
3 x Heddles: 5, 6, and 7 teeth per inch (approximately 3.5" long)
-
1 x Elastic Tie
-
1 x 5" Sharp Metal Needle
-
1 x Wooden Tapestry Needle
-
1 x Instruction Pamphlet
Darning Looms are made from Birch and are approximately 4.5" x 4.5" x 1.5". Instructional videos for using the Darning & Mending loom can be found on the Katrinkles YouTube channel.
