They are either OK or they vanish, one at a time.Somewhere I still have her darning "mushroom"Umm I can too, or at least was, able to do so but as Snoops said it is no longer required. It used to work with wool or cotton but mainly wool, I also turned collars and cuffs on my own work blouses and my children's school uniforms.
