https://egausa.org/visible-mending-introductionThe latest thing for saving the planet is to make your clothes last instead of buying new ones when a button falls off or a hole appears. With visible mending you can show off that the patch is meant to be there and you're proud of it.
I have my favourite handspun, hand dyed, knitted baggy jumper which I really don't want to have to chuck out. I've already knitted invisible patches on both elbows, then re-knitted them on top (they're not exactly invisible though) so this time I thought I would go with some lovely woolly flower patching instead
