Restore, revive and treasure the knitwear you love with knitwear repair expert Alexandra Brinck.

Drawing on years of experience, Alexandra shares the techniques, skills and confidence you need to restore treasured garments and make them last for years to come. Whether you're repairing a cherished heirloom sweater, rescuing a favourite cashmere cardigan, or correcting mistakes in your own knitting projects, this practical handbook will teach you how to achieve professional-quality, almost invisible repairs that extend the life of your wardrobe and reduce textile waste.

Inside you'll discover:

  • Step-by-step photography and clear instructions for every technique
  • Essential knitwear repair and invisible mending skills
  • Solutions for holes, tears, snags, worn areas and damaged stitches
  • Expert guidance suitable for both beginners and experienced makers
  • Techniques to help preserve and care for treasured knitted garments

More than a practical reference, Knit Repair celebrates the mindful, rewarding practice of mending. Alexandra shows how slowing down, repairing by hand and caring for what we already own can be both sustainable and deeply satisfying.

Presented as a stunning tactile paperback with a timeless design, this is a book you'll return to again and again – whether you're learning a new skill, solving a repair challenge, or simply finding inspiration in the art of making things last.

Discover the quiet power of repair and transform the way you care for your knitwear with Knit Repair.
