Our Mending Macaron Tool
This modern mending tool is just like a standard darning mushroom, but the absence of a stem makes it more practical when it comes to repairs in tight spots like pockets, sleeves, socks, cuffs and narrow trouser legs.
 
Ideal for darning, patching, Sashiko, or embroidery on any type of clothing.
 
To use, place the fabric over the Mending Macaron and secure everything in place by pushing the metal spring into the groove on the side of the disc. Whilst stitching hold the disc in the palm of your hand, or if you'd prefer rest it on a flat surface. To remove the garment from the Mending Macaron, simply pull the spring away from the groove.
 
Use the 'bite' style notch on the side of the disc to help you remove the spring whilst not in use.
 
Supplied with a custom-made stainless steel spring which fits perfectly into the groove. It's earth-friendly because they last like forever, plus it looks really darn cool.
 
Exclusively designed and handcrafted with care by us in our Cornish (U.K.) workshop using locally-sourced timber. Our current batch has been created using spalted beech hardwood sourced from the National Trust Lanhydrock Estate (Cornwall, U.K) - this was a windfallen tree that sadly came down in a storm in March 2020.
 
Each Mending Macaron a smooth organic surface, rounded edges and natural unwaxed finish. They all have their own unique character with different grain patterns.
