Climate change is making us rethink how we use resources and not subscribing to fast-fashion rather investing in quality and and mending our clothes has become a mark of pride. Hikaru has written this 'how-to' book about visible mending, which is more akin to embroidery and embellishment that will make your favourite clothing even more personal and save it from landfill.
- Fully illustrated with colour photography throughout
- Detailed step-by-step images
- Easy to follow techniques (even for beginners)
- Plenty of inspiration for adventurous menders.
Twelve darning Techniques are covered in detail with step-by-step instructions include: Seed stitch, square darning, Reversible darns, Seed and square darn, Triangular darns, English darning, Accordion darning, Appliqué, Reverse appliqué, Chain darning, Honeycomb Darning and the decorative Tambourine darning. Ten chapters cover mending sweaters, shirts, denim, items in the home as well as accessories, such as scarves and bags.
This is the first UK edition of the cult darning book by Hikaru Noguchi who has become a guru of visible darning in Japan. This detailed step-by-step guide makes the methods easy to follow even for non-sewers. The stylish photography shows off the artistic and minimalist style of the designer’s work.

Where are your products made?
We proudly make all our products in Great Britain. We have four different locations around the country where our items are made; Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, Manchester and Kent. Fore more details see our Factories & Mills page.
Can I wear your products if I'm allergic to wool?
We use very high quality Merino lambs wool from the first shearing of a lambs soft underbelly. These fibres bend easily, causing minimal or no skin irritation. It is infact, the courseness of (any) textile fibres that cause skin irritation, not wool iteslf. Wool has been officially recognised as a non-allergen. In short, if you feel comfortable in cashmere then you will be comfortable in our goods too!

We take 1-3 days to dispatch your order, then UK deliveries are sent using Royal Mail 1st Class and take 1-2 days.
