Jeans are a wardrobe essential, practical for both women and men, yet susceptible to damage. Thankfully, various methods can be adopted for darning them. Gather your thread, needles, scissors, and let’s explore a few more useful materials!
Jeans Patch with Thermoadhesive Fabric
Ever heard of iron-on fabrics? They’re a fabric with a shiny side covered in glue that adheres due to heat – the easiest way to repair a hole in jeans.
- Turn your pants inside out for a discreet result.
- Set the size of the iron-on fabric slightly larger than the hole.
- Round the edges with scissors to prevent unraveling.
- Place the iron-on fabric shiny side down, iron until it adheres due to heat.
- Let it cool, turn the pants inside out, and voilà – your favorite jeans are ready to wear again!
Darned Jeans with an Outer Patch
An exterior patch is a simple and effective method to repair holes in denim, perfect for knees and pockets.
- Iron the work area on your jeans.
- Cut the patch into a square, leaving a 1 to 3 cm margin.
- Center the fabric over the tear, secure with safety pins.
- Draw a line 4mm from the edges.
- Pass a sashiko thread through the needle under the garment and sew parallel lines along the outline.
Convenient, right? This technique strengthens the fabric, preventing the patch from warping over time, and gives your jeans a unique and stylish touch. Apply these techniques to your favorite jeans, turning them into unique pieces and extending their lifespan. Enjoy them for longer! 👖✂️
