The Shroomie Mending Kit
This creative repair kit contains all the necessary tools you need to enjoy mending your well-worn denim pieces, cotton tees, linen shirts and fixing damage to your knits caused by pesky moths.
Inside you'll find a handcrafted SHROOMIE 2-in-1 Darner Mushroom, a selection high-quality needles and a bunch of organic cotton mending threads & mill waste darning yarns.
The Shroomie is a classic darning mushroom with a TWIST.
Simply use it as is, or turn the cap anticlockwise to remove the stem and convert it into a darning disc to tackle those hard-to-reach areas. The option to transform it into a darning disc makes it perfect for those who love using either tool, or those who have yet to experiment to find their favourite.

- Ergonomic handle for comfort and ease of use.
- Flat base for standing storage and hands-free mending.
- Cap with groove to accomodate one of our custom-made stainless steel coil springs.
