A darning egg is one of those tools that proves its value the moment you use it.
Turned from solid birch, this smooth wooden egg supports fabric from the inside while you mend—making it easier to see worn areas, maintain tension, and build clean, even stitches. It’s especially well-suited for socks, heels, cuffs, and any place fabric needs structure while you work.
This is a traditional tool, but not a nostalgic one. It’s practical, durable, and deeply satisfying to use—whether you’re repairing a favorite pair of socks or reinforcing a well-loved knit.
The unfinished birch surface can be left as-is or personalized with paint, oil, or wax over time.
