Dratted mend (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

darn

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'dratted' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'mend' is the second definition.
(I know that darn is a more specific form of mend)

(Other definitions for darn that I've seen before include "Sew" , "curse" , "Mend with wool using needles" , "Mend (woollens)" , "Repair by sewing, socks perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
