Helpful repair tool

I wear my socks constantly and have worn through a few pairs in the ball of the foot. In the past, I tried using other thread to darn my socks and it just doesn't hold up. Using the darning thread makes a strong and lasting repair extending the life of my socks. Thank you for happy and warm feet!

Thanks

Generous amount of darning threads
As suspected, took 3 times to learn a comfortable repair
Many thanks again Ron & T

A stitch in time saves nine!

My Dad taught me to darn socks, and now I have the best Buffalo knee socks that may need to be darned one day and I’m ready!

A great way to keep a great pair of socks in the rotation. And learned a new skill at the same time.

Darning repairs

Wore out the thumbs. Requested repair kit. This helped me greatly, as I ware , the gloves daily . Repairing was a breeze, ( sewing not the greatest) but all went well. Fingers nice and warm again. Thank You, very much. Have a great Year.

GREAT YARN--JUST WAY TOO LITTLE OF IT

Some of the best sock repair yarn I've used. But, 5' per package is a bit ridiculous. I wear wool socks all year and repair several pairs each fall--primarily in the upper heel/Achilles tendon area. Darning this area uses about 7-10' per sock. 10 yards would be a much better quantity.

Repair Kit

It was perfect to fix my buffalo wool gloves. I had worn holes in both thumbs and it the correct amount to darn the holes. It was my first attempt to darn so that part was pretty but the yarn was great😊.

Bison rule!

Perfect, as usual.

Too bad I need this product.

The kit was adequate to repair my BWC socks, but the fact that I needed to repair a pair of socks that are advertised as being tough enough for everyday all day wear is very disappointing. Perhaps you could include a darning egg in the kit so buyers will be able to repair all of the sock failures I suspect are coming.

Hate tp sew; now love to darn

I was impressed by the high quality of this little kit. It came with everything that I needed. I had seen a video on the internet on how to darn a wool garment and the needle and wool worked well with this process. Great product.

Nice thread. Needs needle threader and more thread.

I am ordering a needle threader, otherwise I can't get the thread into the eye of the needle. I asked my partner, who has more sewing experience and better eyes, and she could do it, but I can't. You might consider putting a needle threader into the kit.

Also, I have more holes in socks to darn than the thread provided in the kit will cover. I like this thread and will order more, but more thread in the kit would be good, too.

Or maybe a two sizes of kit? Bigger kit has more thread and a needle threader? Or needle threader as an option for those who need it?

Perfect!

Including the needle is the kind of attention to detail that makes you guys so great.

Repair Kit, Advantage Wool

I have a pair of gloves I got several years ago at the SAFF fair held near Asheville, NC. Love the gloves but needed to darn a wear place after much use. While I love the kit, I did have to call (great folks!) to find it on the website. Maybe I'm computer-challenged, but its location was not clear.
The kit itself is great because it includes a darning needle! And the service was wonderful.
Eyeing those great socks next!

Kit never came.

There was never a tracking number for the kit. When I emailed the company they said it should arrive on a Thursday and a week later it still wasn't here. I ended up cancelling. Very disappointing. The kit was to repair a hole in one of their gloves. The hole developed after one season of light wear. Disappointed in the quality of a $95.00 pair of gloves and the poor service on the kit.

Hey Jim, we are sorry to hear it all going so wrong for you and your order. We acutually sent you two kits for your order (one to repair and an emergency one when out again). Your order should have arrived by now (no tracking since it weighted nothing and was shipped 1st class envelope) and your order was refunded due to the delivery delay. The gloves are a natural fiber thats why they are so warm and on occasions they can break it is caught on something but the repair kit will do the job well. May you find more happy days ahead of you. Kindest regards Theresa

GOOD Customer Care

The pair of gloves I bought from BWC was the first I'd ever had made of bison wool. I work outside in ND winters and the gloves have definitely kept my hands warmer. I worked with the gloves on the first day and a hole developed due to the nature of my work. I presented the problem to BWC and they were kind enough to send me a free darning kit. It worked just fine.
The ones I bought are used best used as lining underneath standard work gloves. I fully intend to buy from BWC again :relaxed:️

Repair Kit from Buffalo Wool

Great little repair kit; although, in this day age some may not know how to use. No problem, my mother taught me how to darn my own socks early in life. Had a new pair of socks from Buffalo wool that unraveled at the heel. They sent this repair at no cost and it worked just like it should

Nice Little Kit

It’s been challenging finding a high quality fine-gauge yarn for sweater repair due to moth holes, but I believe I have found the solution. I found the Buffalo Wool Company website through a web search for darning wool. This little kit comes with everything I need for moth hole repair on nice sweaters that are simply too good to get rid of. The kit included darning needles and enough yarn for more than one repair (about 3 yards). The wool itself is beautiful and a true black that closely matched the sweater I was repairing.

The package arrived promptly and with a nice hand-written note. I appreciate the personalized service. Thanks! I intend to browse the Buffalo Wool Company’s website for other products.
