knit sweater - swiss darning

Two small holes formed on this lovely wool sweater. The pink yarn compliments the purple really nicely, and will keep this sweater in ship shape for years to come.

Project timeline:  45 mins

 

 

There was a stain on this lovely sweater, so I covered the area up using Swiss Darning (or 'duplicate stitch'). This little rectangle of blue plays nicely with the existing patterns in this sweater.

Project timeline: ~0.5 hrs

Holes and worn areas were covered up with swiss darning on this sweater. The two tones of green play nicely with each other and make this a subtle but pleasing mend.

Project timeline: 2.5 hrs
