Why Repair Your Socks?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’re probably thinking that socks are pretty cheap and I can change them whenever I like! Of course, you can just dispose of the socks with holes and get a fresh pair. But it\u2019s so easy to fix a hole or tear and can give an otherwise perfectly good pair of socks a second life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some socks are probably not worth saving. I don’t recommend fixing your moth-eaten socks, worn out, permanently smelly, and have lost any elasticity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, fixing a small hole or wear mark is still a good idea. By taking care of your possessions, you not only save some money, but you also feel like a real live pioneer, which is pretty cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if you don’t want to take your shoes off at your friend’s house? Because your store-bought pair of socks are on their way to get a hole. You might have quit some pairs, but you don’t want to throw them away because they have a small wannabe hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, thinking about throwing them away would mean shopping for new ones, and perhaps you don’t like shopping for clothes. So why don\u2019t you look for a way to fix them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, repairing socks, also known as darning, was a simple task that most homemakers did. It wasn’t special or weird. It was just a part of clothing maintenance. With a darning egg or a darning spool, they would patch up little holes and wear. It is possible to darn them, as our ancestors did with woolen socks. But if store-bought socks get darned, you can either see it from the outside or you will feel it from the inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s not necessary to darn a sock repeatedly until it has more of your work than the original sock. It is all about making small repairs when needed to maintain your clothes rather than throwing them away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
