Roud’s handbook brings together garment repair methods ranging from basic fixes to decorative textile work. It covers the distinctions between darning and mending, along with patches, reinforcements, sashiko, boro, and repairs using lace or crochet. The guide also addresses buttons, hems, emergency fixes, tricky fabrics, and no-sew options. Its 50 embroidery and mending stitches make the book a reference for exploring different approaches to extending the life of clothing, whether the aim is a straightforward repair or a more visible, creative one.
