GS Repair

HOW THE SERVICE WORKS

Being both committed to and proud of her work, Genevieve will personally mend and repair your GS knitwear by hand. Not only will she use her expert knowledge of the designs, but her unique yarn collection also ensures the best colour match possible, so you won’t be able to tell it was ever damaged.

Genevieve uses the Swiss darning technique, which intricately follows the damaged yarn row by row. By stitching on top of the yarn, she can replicate the original form in a highly subtle – or even invisible – way.

For carrying out an invisible mend on a small hole or tear, our prices start from just £25.

For a full knitwear refresh (darning a small hole or tear, then de-bobbling and steaming the item), our prices start from £50.

For anything larger or more complicated, please contact us at ‘me@genevievesweeney.com’ and we’ll be happy to discuss the options available. Please note that we cannot repair items from other makers or brands and cannot accept moth-eaten pieces due to the risk of contamination and damage to our yarn stocks.
