Darning

Darning is a sewing technique for repairing holes or worn areas in fabric or knitting using needle and thread alone.

Darning is a traditional method for repairing fabric damage or holes that do not run along a seam, and where patching is impractical or would create discomfort for the wearer, such as on the heel of a sock.

Traditional embroidery using pattern darning is found in Africa, Japan, Northern and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Mexico and Peru.

[2] Rofoogari is an old traditional skill or technique used to fix or repair historic textiles and woven materials and fabrics in Iran.

Having an old history in weaving and textile making, the culture of rofoo, or "vasleh- Pineh" arose among the poor and unwealthy communities.

In some communities due to lack of resources, they repeated the process as they needed, which is why we find very colorful, different patterned vasleh- pineh in galleries and museums.
