Worked like a champ. I always wear a hole in my right big toe. I wear expensive running socks and it drives me nuts to have holes. The light bulb trick was awesome thank you!
TIP: use the light bulb, but instead of ordinary thin thread, use thicker embroidery thread and leap across the open hole running the thread in a grid pattern and you'll KEEP THE SHAPE and cover the hole at once.
fantastic video, thank you! sewing / darning is a skill I dont have. every time I try, everything I do unravels in days. the anchor of wrapping the thread around the needle is what i need to know - thanks again.
Thank you! In Spain we use a wooden egg. A real egg, carefully handled, would do the trick the same. But the light bulb is also a great idea, thanks! Keep warm and happy enough in this marvelous winter! A man in a small white town in central Spain.
Been sewing sock holes for years. If you see a SMILE on your sock, fold it another way until the sock fibers are flatter. Socks look and feel better on your foot. The only smile should be on your face.
I am glad I am not the only one who repairs my socks like this. I work as a patient transport tech at my local hospital and I walk around ten miles a day so I am always wearing holes in my socks. I love saving money. There also is a sort of pleasure stretching the use of unseen things out like boxers and socks.
I cant believe all the positive comments! This is going to be soooo uncomfortable. Holes in socks need darning not sewing up like it was a seam. you won't feel the repair if it's darned and the sock will be just a comfortable as it was when new and darning isn't difficult
Everyone’s got a little different method, my wife’s got a different method than my mom. In the end the result is the same. More mileage out of your socks equals saved money.👍👍 thanks for your support.
yeah, but what sucks is they keep ripping out in the same place I just sewed this way 2 weeks prior! I was hoping for some miracle sock cure that I never thought of before. But thanks for posting!

I love the thread 3x around the needle for knotting instead of fumbling with individual tying when finished.
Ingenious!
Thank you!
common sense lol
@@KimoKimochii maybe if you sew a lot or know a lot about knots.... But for most people, they wouldn't think of that.

so expanding foam no good?
Instead of a lightbulb I used a nearly finished roll of parcel tape, thank you!
This was worth the watch for the knot hack lol
right lol
Thank you
I used a cup but will try the light bulb .
Great ideas with the light bulb. You are God like... Lol
Well, thank you.
The light bulb way looked so easy, why didn't u just start with that lol
Won’t the knot irritate your heel skin?
Probably not as much as the heel skin irritates the sock!
🔥landed🔥
Is it weird that I find this attractive?
This feels AWFUL on your feet. You can feel it with every step you take!!
😂😂😂
Thank you so much I’m fixing a sock for my dad now all go next video😅
Is it possible you put the stitching on the inside of the sock?
I don't think this is the right way to darn socks. Moving on to the next video.
I didn't watch through the video but judging by the other comment this is very useful.
Not how I darn socks...
Lol
You got to be kidding me 😮p
Just buy new socks, ffs!
Why are you even watching then?
Just buy dam socks theyre like $12
it's a good skill to have. plus that's 12€ saved :P
Textile waste pollutes the environment. Mending clothes helps them out of the landfill and saves you money
I bet Stevie worships Gretta and supports the BLMLGBTQUZ+
@@super_straight well HOT DAMN! Gretta is the best

I always keep saying "Rather a hole in your sock than a sock in your hole"
Eh...???
