THE MENDED BY YOU KIT

Anyone can mend.

Some might not agree but it is simply true. You do not need to be creative, crafty or particularly good with your hands. You just need to begin.

Everything in this kit is here to make the beginning of your mending journey as enjoyable as possible and make your first stitch feel so satisfying and joyous that you immediately want to do it again (and again). In this kit you will learn how to make your first mending patch. Presented in a natural calico bag, you will find everything you need to begin your mending journey.

Inspired by Japanese boro and sashiko traditions, the Mended By You Kit guides you through your first hand stitched patch, start to finish from threading your needle to washing away the pattern sheet and watching your stitches appear. Everything inside has been chosen with intention, reclaimed fabrics, Japanese sashiko thread, a traditional sashiko needle and simple and warm guidance to help you begin with confidence, whatever your experience level.

Every stitch you make is a small act of love for the things worth keeping.
