How lovely those little metal speed weave tools are once you get the hang of them! This is my husband’s beloved cardigan, wearable again. I’m addicted and scouring the wardrobe for old knits 😊
Well done ☺️ that cardigan is now unique in all the world. I started mending my partner’s clothes in the same way and some are now more mends than clothes. I’ve suggested he should finally replace some of them and he refuses because they’re “even more special now that they’re mended by you”.
I like the idea of different textures in such a visible mend. I’d probably use darning wool in the same colour as the piece if he wanted it to be unobtrusive

Oh that’s glorious 🥹
Even though I use the same threads, it's worth mentioning that darning wool is a correct choice for such a mending since it seems to be darning
