My method for darning socks - video link (youtu.be)

I have made a short video showing how I darn my socks, using a netting stitch rather than straight stitches.

It's the first time I've ever made a video & the stitiching is not the finest or neatest I have ever done, but I hope it shows the process well enough to follow.

Thank you. I definitely need to keep the work more centred - even without subtitles I was moving out of frame a bit on a few occassions. It's unfortunate that the default subtitle locations don't seem to be changeable, but if you are on a computer (not on mobile) you can drag them to a different position.
