Boro Mending Kit
At Yesterday Store, we embrace the potential of salvaging and repurposing clothing items that would otherwise end up in landfill. We take inspiration from the Japanese technique of Boro to breathe new life into old garments, connecting with forgotten practices in an era dominated by fast fashion.
Our Boro Mending Kit is the perfect solution for repairing and restoring your clothing and textile items.
This comprehensive kit equips you with everything you need to begin your boro mending journey. It includes:
- 14 x pieces of high-quality Japanese fabric patches in a variety of colours
- 2 x Japanese Sashiko needles (one long and one short)
- 1 x 20m skein of off white sashiko thread
- 1 x 20m skein of navy sashiko thread
- 1 x leather thimble
- 1 x pair of thread snips
- 6 x small safety pins, and
- Mending instruction sheet.
All stored in a canvas bag.
The kit includes step-by-step instructions and tips for creating beautiful boro patches. Whether you're new to mending or an experienced sewer, this kit is perfect for anyone who wants to add a personal touch to their clothing while also reducing waste.
Join us in the journey of honouring the past while shaping a more conscious future for fashion.
