Darning socks

These socks were knitted by my husband's grandmother, who passed away many years ago. 

I could never throw them away because they are a labour of love but they got forgotten somewhere in a box in the attic. 

When I came across them during a recent cleanup, I decided the time had come to do some serious mending. I used my cute darning tool and some colourful yarn. 

I love this job and I love even more that we can use the socks again! 






And then I couldn’t stop anymore and went on mending some great shop bought socks 😊:
