New! Another excellent book on darning by Japan's visible mending guru, Hikaru Noguchi. This most delightful and useful manual celebrates the humble sock with 39 inspiring examples of visible mending.

Darning Socks contains a collection of ideas and full step-by-step instructions for applying visible mending to socks, making them stay in use and keeping them out of landfill.

This beautiful new book is translated from the Japanese book by Hikaru Noguchi and offers her usual high level of beautiful photography and inspirational ideas. Hikaru has invented a novel way to make the mends on your socks last even longer, saving you time and energy.

No previous sewing experience is necessary and full instructions are included, from the easy way to thread a needle and choosing the right thread, to the inspirational use of colour and innovative materials for the experienced sewer.

Praise for Hikaru's previous books:

"The pictures, diagrams and profiles are so inspiring. Mending clothes is an act of looking after yourself and others. Its essential work that Hikaru does with grace and beauty."
- Celia Pym, shortlisted for the Womens Hour Craft Prize, author of On Mending

"As the environmental impacts of overconsumption become ever more apparent, repair emerges as a powerful political act. This comprehensive compendium provides both instruction and inspiration and is sure to make every reader look at their wardrobe in a whole new light."
- Dr Amy Twigger Holroyd, Associate Professor of Fashion and Sustainability, Nottingham Trent University

"Colourful photography combined with an easily understood visual guide brings this wonderful book to life!"
- Sanae Kido: Textile Surgery

"Hikaru Noguchi has a wonderful and considered approach to visible mending. In her book Darning she explains in great detail how to use a variety of darning and applique techniques, what materials are suitable, and step-by-step instructions. Last but not least, all techniques are accompanied by beautiful pictures for plenty of inspiration to do your own repairs."
- Tom van Deijnen (Tom of Holland)

Nice and soft
Size: Queen, Color: Chambray
Update: I’m very happy with this sheet set! I’m currently only using the fitted sheet as I don’t have a need for the top sheet or pillow cases right now. It hasn’t popped off the mattress at all like the previous cheep sheet I had. Original post: The sheet set arrived today. Haven’t actually tried it yet because I need to wash it first. From I can see, looks great. Once it’s washed and on my bed, and can figure out how to update my review I will do so accordingly. It’s soft like most people have said and the color is nice, though they didn’t have my favorite color purple in a shade I like so I got the ‘fancy blue’ (don’t remember the actual name of the color) because I desperately needed a new sheet of quality.

Very comfy sheets, nice fabric
Size: Full, Color: Oatmeal
I wasn’t expecting such good quality forthis price. They’re very soft, but of fairly thick fabric. I’m sleeping great on them. The pockets are deep enough for an 8” foam mattress plus my 3” topper. Will be getting another set for the second bedroom.

Great Sheets!
Size: Twin, Color: Oatmeal
Super soft, wash up beautifully, seem well made — very happy! It’s very hard to find 100% cotton t-shirt type sheets and these are really lovely.

Weirdly textured
Size: King, Color: Dark Gray
I have bought and loved jersey sheets in the past, that have all been as soft as a well worn cotton t-shirt. These arent soft. They have the stretch of jersey, but not the soft smooth texture that they should have. Even after washing a few times these are one of my least favorite sheets I've ever bought on Amazon.

Soft, Breathable Sheets That Feel Great to Sleep On
Size: Twin, Color: White
This Amazon Basics jersey sheet set was a really good purchase. The cotton material is soft, stretchy, and breathable — it feels like sleeping in a comfortable T‑shirt. The fitted sheet has a nice snug fit that stays in place, and the flat sheet is lightweight without feeling flimsy. The fabric washes well, doesn’t pill, and stays soft after multiple loads. It’s a great everyday sheet set for anyone who likes that cozy, relaxed jersey feel. Overall, comfortable, easy to care for, and great value for the price.
