Photos and illustrations show you how to give new life to your old clothes, making them cooler than they ever were new. In an era of fast fashion, customizing your clothes is a great way to show your unique character, reduce waste, and live more sustainably and compassionately. Mend holes in socks with brightly-colored thread, sew patches onto jeans, darn sweaters, and even turn that truly irreparable old t-shirt into a woven bag. Learn techniques like shashiko, pom poms, tassels, latch hooking, applique, button-sewing, and so much more.
Due to its age and history, vintage clothing may show signs of wear. We think that's part of the charm, but we'll always mention any noticeable flaws in the description.
Excellent: Pristine and appears to have very little wear
Great: Minor signs or wear but no major flaws
Good: Minor stains or flaws, fabric & seams may be weak over time & use but still very wearable
Fair: Wearable but has obvious flaws
