I got some embroidery thread and fixed up an old sweater that ive had for...over a decade? It had some pretty big tears on the sleve. Now it has some nice looking decorative stitching. :) Already a fan of visible mending.
I'm wearing mine with pride! I know it looks kind of ratty, but it's so comfortable and I'm proud of being able to prolong its life. Senseless waste is pretty hateful to me, keeping things going is a great feeling, especially when it's a favourite!
