How to fix a broken backpack strap: Tools needed

  • Hand sewing needle
  • A scissors
  • Approx 3-4 foot of upholstery nylon thread
  • 2×5” of nylon cother
  • A broken backpack!

A step by step guide

Step 1

  • Thread the needle with the 0.7 yards of upholstery nylon thread.

Step 2

  • Align the two ends of the thread, and tie a knot
  • Trim the extra thread off

Step 3

  • Trim the frayed edges and thread off of the backpack and shoulder strap

Step 4

  • Align the 2×5 nylon cloth with the torn off backpack strap

Make sure that the nylon cloth is able to fold over the strap and align up with the other end

Step 5

Make sure that the stitch goes all the way through the Nylon as you sew

Step 6

  • The end of the stitch push the needle about halfway through
  • Take the thread, and wrap it around the sharp side of the needle
  • Pull the needle all the way through

If the stitch did not go through both sides of the nylon, repeat steps 5 and 6 over on the other side. Remember to replace the thread by repeating steps 1 and 2.

If you want extra support, repeat steps 5 and 6 on the other side. Remember to replace the thread by repeating steps 1 and 2.

Step 7

  • Repeat steps 1 and 2 and wit the 1 meter long thread

Step 8

When sewing, make sure to follow your thread and needle carefully. A misguided needle will lead to unwanted tangles
