A classic darning mushroom with a TWIST!
 
Simply turn the cap anticlockwise to remove the stem and convert your SHROOMIE into a darning disc to tackle those hard-to-reach areas - think pockets, sleeves, socks, cuffs and narrow trouser legs.
 
The disc is small enough to hold in the palm of your hand and the option to transform your mushroom into two parts makes it easier to store.
 
Key Points:
Repair holes, tears, threadbare areas and stains up to 8cm/3" wide.
 
Flat base for standing storage and hands-free mending - rest it on the table and give your arms a break whilst you stitch. 
 
Ergonomic handle for comfort and ease of use.
 
The cap has a nice curved shape on the top which is particularly useful for darning heels, crotches, armpits, elbows and knees, where the fabric of the garment is shaped.
 
A metal screw fitting ensures the cap (aka darning disc) can be twisted on or off easily and securely.
 
And, if you're fed-up of fiddly elastic bands and bobbles to secure your fabric in place, you'll be pleased to know the SHROOMIE comes supplied with one of our beautiful custom-made stainless steel springs which fits perfectly into the groove on the cap. This finishing touch holds fabric securely, it's earth-friendly because they last like forever, plus it looks really damm cool.
 
A smooth organic surface, rounded edges and natural unwaxed finish.
 
Exclusively designed and handcrafted with care by us in our Cornish (U.K.) workshop using locally-sourced timber. Our current batch has been created using sustainable FSC certified beech hardwood.
 
Each one has it's own unique character with different grain patterns and is stamped on the base with our brandmark.
