Mäkelä Parsi ja paikkaa - näkyvästi

Learn how to repair and recycle your favorite textiles.
Most of us have a favorite pair of jeans that we don't mind throwing away, no matter how worn they are. Don't give power to fast fashion, but grab a needle and learn inspiring repair techniques!

Parsi and places visibly!

The book guides you with a modern approach and hands-on, how to repair and tune the treasures of your closet.

The book deals with clothing care as a form of handicraft and shows how you create a new connection with textiles, accept small imperfections and extend the life of the garment. The book also recycles old fabrics by turning them into something new.

Designer Arounna Khounnoraj can be found on Instagram as @bookhou, invites her readers to the world of slow fashion. Great photos and step-by-step instructions guide you into the secrets of traditional but already almost forgotten repair techniques.

Khounnoraj tells you how you can patch jeans, cover tears with embroidery, dye fabrics or add sashiko, the Japanese art of embroidery.

So put the contents of your wardrobe to good use, invest in more sustainable consumption and take good care of the clothes you love.
