Overview

The Art of Knitwear Repair is all about the art of mending—a craft that, at its best, restores not only our clothes but also ourselves and the world around us. This book encourages us to care for our garments, whether you’re darning a sock or patching up a favourite jumper. It’s a gentle reminder to value what we already have. Take a step back from the constant urge for something new. Embrace the beauty in wear and tear—and discover the joy of mending!

Learn practical techniques for mending knitwear—from the simplest fixes to more decorative stitches. Let creative examples inspire you—sometimes, a mended item can be even better than new. You’ll also find tips on materials, garment care, and repurposing yarn. Mending goes beyond appearances—it’s part of a global movement to address the issues of textile waste and fast fashion.

Finnish knitwear designer Minttu Wikberg (@pawlymade) finds joy in both stitching and reflection. Her deep understanding of knit structures shapes her approach to repair. Minttu’s passion lies in giving the discarded a second chance—breathing new life into neglected textiles through the art of mending.
