The darning stitch is an embroidery technique in which threads are combined horizontally and vertically to create a woven surface.
This is a well-known technique for mending, but it is also very popular as a decorative technique, as the colours blend together in a delightful way.
Of course, it can also be used on torn or stained clothing or bags to give them a new lease of life.
It can be done with a small amount of yarn, so you can use leftover yarn from knitting jumpers.
Here are some fun and eco-friendly darning embroidery techniques and patterns to get you started.
