(11) Trim the edges until they are parallel to the edges of the patch and % inch wide. (12) Cut off the corners of the patch diagonally, so that they do not overlap.

CLOTH DARNING* Darning is the repairing of cloth by the weaving in of thre
...ads to replace torn or worn warp and woof threads. Knitted fabrics, also, are mended in this way. Darning is a less conspicuous method of repairing than patching, although on garments which are subjected to very hard wear or to much laundering, it is not so satisfactory. In woolen garments darning is usually pref- erable to patching, since it is less bulky and woolen clothes are not so often laundered. .
