A couple of friends, who are also ringers, started a new service repairing handbell mallets, specifically the battery and bass mallets that use yarn. My friends ring in several different choirs and each choir was experiencing tattered yarn on the mallet heads and the covers were coming off.
They looked into purchasing new mallets and YIKES! it was expensive. They tried to find someone to repair the mallets and approached the knitting groups at a couple of churches. They were told that they could not be repaired, buy new ones. Finally, they tried repairing them themselves and the mallets turned out good as new and a new business was born. And, after finding a great, high-quality wool yarn source, they realized they could also offer custom colors, to match their church colors! Here’s the website:
