Default Mending/Darning socks

Does anyone else still do this?

I can (and will) mend a small toe hole with a machine mend.

Does any one still mend socks by hand? My Mom did - and she did it elegantly!

It seems like a shame to toss a whole sock that just has a bitty hole in it.

I can definitely understand why someone would mend hand knitted socks. That would be a lot of effort to discard for a small hole.
