Day 54: Restitched the heel of my softball glove


Next I have to tighten the other stitches that hadn't broken, and oil it and reform the pocket. Softball season is almost here! I've been getting really depressed all winter not having many outside/drinking activities.

My only regret is that I didn't leave enough on that last bit to tie into a knot. It looked like enough when I slashed it off with my pucket knife but it most certainly was not. Maybe once it becomes more flexible. The way it was originally stitched though, there was no knot or extension beyond the glove. It just ended inside the glove which seemed kind of sloppy but then I'm not a glove cobbler, or a gravy robber.
