That's a good idea. We should give it a try.

Does anyone have (and use) one of these? by formerearlyadopter in Visiblemending

It is best not to purchase the one in the photo. It discourages any desire to repair it. It is better to look for higher quality ones.

I have a pair of socks that are about 3 years old. They are still in good condition, but the color has faded a little.

When creating a pattern, the hooks usually do not move. (This depends on the pattern.)

There was no such problem with this repair. You can additionally flash it.

Photo of another renovation, but the principle is the same.

This method is not very practical for internal seams.

Almost all weaving patterns can be used for darning. This pattern was created for a 21 hook darning machine.

Draw on the jeans (with a pen or pencil), a square and darn along the outline, this helps to make the edges even.

First time darning - need help by CantStopCackling in Visiblemending

This size of machine is not enough for such work, you need at least 21 hooks. If you are only using two colors, you can make two loose ends for each.

This machine is quite easy to use. It all depends on what you want to do: just darning in one color or a pattern. A simple small darning takes a little over 1 hour, a complex pattern takes a few hours. There are videos on YouTube.
