Writing Well Worn was an absolute dream and I hope that you’ll enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it! All orders will include a free Well Worn sticker (plastic free and compostable!).

Designed to act as a compendium for all of your wardrobe mending needs, every chapter in Well Worn focuses on visibly mending a different item of clothing. I collected a range of pieces from friends and family to show you real life repairs for real life damage. Suitable for beginners and enthusiasts alike I hope you can use this book as a springboard for your visible mending journey and find some tips and tricks to guide you along the way.

Contents include chapters on why we should mend, core techniques, tools and how to use the book as well as garment led chapters from jeans through to socks. 

This is the UK version of Well Worn - the US version is available to order here.

If you'd like a signed or personalised copy (this will be on the inside cover page) please select the relevant drop down option and then add your name and message at the checkout.

Lovely book. Lovely group

I’m a retired librarian. I’m also recovering book buying addict.. So, my collection of visible mending books is carefully curated. I borrow before I buy. I ordered Well Worn after reading the first couple of chapters. I ordered right from Skye, for reasons, but mostly I wanted the darning mushroom. AKA by me as the darning yo-yo . Writing, directions, illustrations, organization are first rate.

Such a lovely and helpful book!

I've really enjoyed exploring this book so far and starting my first darning project with the help of the teachings here. (So far I've done two woven techniques on a t-shirt and a pair of old socks.) There's a wealth of information in here for me as a beginner and lots to get practicing with. It feels genuinely exciting to be learning these important methods on my sustainability journey - and getting to be creative with it too! Thanks for this wonderful book!

Well worn book

A beautiful book. I’m ready to give it a go, mending a well worn pile of clothes, that have been saved for years.

Masterpiece of a book!

I look forward to years of learning from this well-crafted book. Quality paper stock, sketches, photos and great text. It's both an interesting read and reference tool that will guide me on best mending technique needed for each piece I work on plus augment damaged or boring items with fun needlework to extend the useful life of these items. Thank you!
