After much procrastination I took the first step in my plan to make instructional videos by doing a short video of how to darn a sock. I really don’t sound like I think I do when recorded, it is very odd. I also put some apps on my phone to filter for colour blindness visibility, it was a bit tricky to find colour combinations that would work well and provide good contrast for different types of colour blindness.
I think I’ve got the basics down about how to use the editing software, but managed to delete a section in the middle (fortunately not an important bit). I also need to work on keeping what I am doing centred when filming, I kept moving my work into the wrong spot.
Overall, lots of areas to improve on but I’m fairly happy with it for a first effort.
I wear holes there because my feet are at the top of the size range for standard socks, and with one foot larger than the other it only wears on that one side. The fabric at that point gets stretched thin so it is more vulnerable to abrasion, I don’t think the toe nails are the main culprit. If you do wear holes regularly I find it actually helps to darn a patch over the top before there is actually a hole there, the extra protection tends to stop it wearing through.

OK, if you insist.
Thankee muchly. Interesting technique for toe holes. Must try it. Or possibly cut my toenails a bit shorter.
