how to Repair hems
Step 1
If you have an unravelling hem which you want to fix, or even a full hem you’d like to take up, this is a great hand-sewing method.
Step 2
Start with a fine needle and thread, and tie a knot a few centimetres from the end of the thread.
Step 3
Insert the needle about 1cm before the start of the open area and bring it back through about 1cm further along.
Step 4
For the next stitch, bring the needle back to where the knot is and make another stitch, ending just after the thread.
Step 5
Repeat step four - starting each stitch where the previous one ends - until you’ve gone just beyond the unravelled section.
Step 6
To secure the end, make a small stitch and bring the needle through the loop to create a knot.
Step 7
Trim off any excess thread.
Step 8
This is what the final result should look like.
