Many dancers find that darning the platform of their pointe shoes provides stability while dancing. Others darn the satin of the shoe to achieve a cut down look in desired areas. This kit contains 280 meters of 100% mercerized Egyptian cotton crotchet thread, a mini thread cutter, a thimble, and two darning needles. Works for sides, vamps, and heels. Also included are instructions that demonstrate the sewing methods of two popular stitches.
