How to: Repair SEAMS in Clothing | Hand Sewing Tutorial | Mending Sweatpants

This video lesson shows you how to repair ripped seams in clothing by hand. I use a (very badly!) damaged pair of sweatpants for the demo.

Method 1 is backstitch and method 2 is ladder stitch, both of which can be used on knit fabrics. On woven fabrics I would only use the backstitch technique.

I hope this is useful!
