So amazing!!! And I love the quiet 🤫 - no annoying music or chatter ❤

[@shuninglim5457]

Wow! I have been doing visible mending for a while, now watching you do invisible mending, it is a whole different level of skill required! 🤯

Milli, thank you, thank you! I’ve been trying to figure out how to “ harvest” yarn from a sweater. I was afraid to undo a seam. You showed me it is doable♥️

[@ms1573]

[@ModernMending]

I love that you're on KZbin, Marlen! This is a valuable resource and I've shared it with Modern Mending Club.

[@milli_and_the_bee]

Thank you so much for your support Erin. I think KZbin is the right next step to share more about mending since it’s not so limited like Instagram is. ☺️

Super pomysł na uzyskanie włóczki do naprawy👍. Żeby była gładka, po spruciu przeciągnij ją nad parującą woda 😉

[@milli_and_the_bee]

Thank you. Yes, steaming will help to make it even more invisible. Happy mending! ☺️🪡

[@pagalpanchi]

Thank you!!! I’ve been trying to find videos on how to harvest wool for mending a sweater for ages!!!

[@milli_and_the_bee]

I’m glad to hear it is helpful. Happy mending! ☺️🌸

[@terryskovronek1921]

Your skill, the silence, the speed at which you demonstrate, combine to create a mezermising display of skill in both daring AND teaching. Just brilliant!!

[@julieb5760]

Oh, wow! That fix is really fantastic. It's good as new.

[@milli_and_the_bee]

Thank you so much. I am happy to hear you like it.

[@aarilg2784]

Thank you thank you! This is the video I’ve been waiting for for years!! I see you are harvesting the yarn used to sew the side together, not unraveling the sweater! I can’t wait to try this on a mend I have been sitting on for a looooong time because I could not find suitable matching yarn.

[@hannaw5343]

I dind't knwo how to harvest the yarn for invisible mending. Thank you so much for showing! :)

[@723snoopy]

So impressed! I don't quite understand how you know where to cut into the side seam, is it the seam or on fabric to harvest, and how you prevent the whole thing from unraveling once you made a cut?

[@supernova622]

It's a separate thread that is a chain stitch joining the front and back pieces. The yarn will match the body of the garment for darning. You take yarn from the side seam for your repair, and replace with a similar weight to close the seam back up

[@723snoopy]

@@supernova622 That's genius!! Thank you for taking the time to share that!!

[@فودافون-ر8د]

شكراً جداً على الشرح والتوضيح الرائع للغرز كل التوفيق لحضرتك

[@milli_and_the_bee]

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am happy to hear it’s helpful. ☺️🌸

[@jill552]

Very nice. I often find the seam yarn not identical (different fiber content), but it’s better than anything you can buy.

[@kirstymaccrimmon2877]

This is such a useful video - thank you!

[@michcala]

I wish I had seen this video years ago. I tried to mend a small hole in my son's cashmere sweater - the look of disappointment at the very visible mend was enough to make me feel miserable at the time.

[@milli_and_the_bee]

I am sorry to hear that. But mending, especially invisible mending is a progress, it gets better by practice. So don’t give up. ☺️ Happy mending.
