A creative way to mend your clothing

Life Kit

About this episode

The next time you rip a sweater, don't throw it out. Extend its life with "visible mending," a creative sewing technique that uses stitches, fabric and embellishments to artfully show off the repair. In this episode, we explain how anyone with basic sewing skills can try this method at home. This episode was originally published in May 2023.
