The ageing process leaves marks and character on our favourite things, and makes them worth fixing.
It has been a long time since I knew where to find an old-fashioned cobbler with the right tools for stitching thru thick leather, so when the strap of my handbag broke free, I re-attached the D Ring using an old scrap of leather (saved from when I worked in a factory at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution), a very sharp paring knife, and a bolt and two nuts left over from an old piece of broken furniture that someone took away.
The repair is now about 10 years old.

I’ve had 1/2 a dozen pair of socks on rotation for ?5 years…
got them from Aldi, they are a merino blend with elastaine tops, and just the best socks ever. As a bonus, they are very mendable.The most remarkable thing is that of the 12 socks in total, only one has shown any wear near the front of the foot. 🤷🏼♀️
I am beginning to find darning a relaxing way to pass the time. I’m finally turning into my mother.

this cardigan was hand-knitted (pure wool) by an Aunt of mine —I first saw her wearing it about 25 years ago.
Fren has inherited it, but managed to put a right proper very ragged tear in the left sleeve (undoubtedly while gardening)
Fren did a good job of guessing the colour (without even a sample) while in a woolshop.
I tried to knit a patch to place over the hole, but after several hopeless attempts (yeah… nah) abandoned the knitting option and I just ended up darning it.
Mission Accomplished — no landfill, plenty of wear left in the cardie, and memories of Aunt on tap !

El #visiblemending más cutre de la historia, pero por algo hay que empezar. He cosido el asa de una tote bag enorme que llevaba meses posponiendo. Es una bolsa comodísima para llevar cosas grandes que no estaba usando porque le faltaba un asa. No sé cuanto costaría una nueva, probablemente una con mismas dimensiones y estampado no se pueda conseguir. Gracias a @laguiri por colgar habitualmente sus remiendos y recordadme y animarme a hacer este, porque aunque sea feo, aguanta peso y es funcional :)
