Sweater repair


The beautiful pewter hook closures on this wool sweater from Salzburg began to break and bend. They were replaced with brass snap closures.

The weave of the wool was so tight that I had to pierce it with an awl to install the brass snaps. The construction of this sweater is amazing.

Done.




I would love to use these on a bag, but they are not strong enough.
