Invisible Mending
Mending is one of those historical skills that has made a come-back. While it was primarily utilitarian at one time, it’s taken on new life and prestige as an art and craft in it’s own right. Because of that, it’s worth defining some terms:
- Plain mending – utilitarian patching, darning, and repair
- Visible mending – decorative, such as boro, sashiko, embroidery, fancy patchwork
- Invisible mending – re-weaving or re-knitting cloth to look like the original fabric
Because mending is a desirable self-sufficiency skill, I’ve blogged about some of my plain mending (such as mending socks) and some of my visible mending (such as my barn jacket). Recently, I decided to try my hand at invisible mending.
To learn on, I chose my favorite denim work skirt. I discovered the beginnings of a small hole when I hung it out to dry on the clothesline.
I caught it early enough that I only had to re-weave the blue threads.
