Come and learn the art of darning, with textile repair specialist and visible mender Lizzie David (@little_moth_mends)
Learn how to mend your knitwear by hand using woven darning techniques.
Mending is creative and rewarding, bringing clothes back to life, repairing and reconnecting with them rather than replacing them.
Enjoy a slow stitching experience – an opportunity to learn new techniques and explore colour, texture and pattern in yarn.
Bring along a knitted or woven garment in need of repair. Moth eaten sweaters and holey socks are ideal, or something you’d like to embellish. All materials will be provided, no experience necessary.
Ticket price includes wine and nibbles, a practice swatch, bobbin and yarn to take away to continue mending at home.
