    I love the plastic bottle idea - makes sewing from the inside so much easier. Thanks!

    I just finished mending one of my granddaughter's favorite pairs of socks, and this video helped me do it. Thank you! And by the way, Waterfall and music sounds are way too much but i muted it and follow the CC.

      And what happens to people who say words like shoot and darn? When they die they go to heck.

    Please no music. Your voice is soft and the music makes it hard to hear you.

    If you try this - remember to keep the sock pulled tight - down over the 'darning egg'. Use extra thread or a rubber band to keep it tight. Then when you finish and release the sock the repair stitches are nice and tight.
    This woman forgot so her repair will be loose stitches.

    so much work for such an itty bitty teeny meeny tiny little hole. sorry for the lack of adjectives.

      little itty bitty teeny meeny tiny little hole will turn into A HUMUNGOUS hole if you do not darn it! Also, we are supposed, as a society, to be learning how NOT to waste resources by throwing things away. I knit my own socks, and if I find a hole there is no way I am going to throw away all that work. Darn it!I

    /the music is overpowering.

  • @adamapple5757
    @adamapple5757 Před 5 lety

    The music is ok. It's the ambient noise of the room which is too loud when she speaks because the mic is too far away from her mouth, and she is not speaking loud enough which doesn't help. So maybe Linda G is correct regarding the music. It's too loud if the woman does not use a proper mic.

    It is so much easier to do it with a different color thread, more difficult using same color thread.

    When weaving, are you picking up parts of the sock as well?

    • @DanielinLaTuna
      @DanielinLaTuna Před 3 lety

      Yes; according to another video I saw. That makes the surrounding areas stronger.

    A conventional light bulb makes a great darning egg.

    that background noise is awful and unnecessary.

  • @tazbat99
    @tazbat99 Před 8 lety +1

    Why is it important to darn the socks over a small hole instead of just sewing it up like we do for any normal fabric hole?

    • @sharonpeek4578
      @sharonpeek4578 Před 8 lety +6

      This would make the sock pucker, therefore leaving a knot on the sock to rub a blister on your foot, in addition to being very uncomfortable.

    • @tazbat99
      @tazbat99 Před 8 lety +1

      ah...so if I have no issue with a blister , I can still continue to sew it the basic way?

    • @AgyLee
      @AgyLee Před 7 lety +2

      It will be uncomfortable if you sew it up the normal way. Also, darning is useful to replace and reinforce the weakened areas of the sock. :)

    Please lose the music, it isn't helpful as we cannot hear you.

  • @joesmith942
    @joesmith942 Před 6 lety +1

    The issue is not so much the music but your voice is not as loud as the music and it has an echo. Great visual. Awful sound. It's really unusable.

  • @belajadevotchka2

    I'm done. That horrible motherfucking insidious toy piano+ ukulele music is positively rage inducing.
    I hear this shit, I see red. After clicking on this video, it took me 10 minutes to stop shaking
    before I could type this.
    For me, clicking on these tutorials is a dangerous game of Russian Roulette-
    I just don't know which one it's going to be that is going to make me shoot myself
    in the head, but it will definitely be one of them if I keep spinning the cylinder
    and clicking.
    If a prescription drug caused me to have as much suicidal and homicidal ideation
    as this monstrous music does, I could sue the pharmaceutical company.

    you have this STUPID MUSIC in the background, and it interferes with understanding your instructions... which I AM SURE are good instructions....
