Have you taken out your knitwear this winter and noticed they're in need of some TLC? Don't throw them out! Join us for the solution!
TICKETS FOR THE WORKSHOP HERE
Join us for this workshop to pick up some new sewing techniques that will help you to repair and refresh your tired knitwear. Save a jumper Save the planet!
We'll cover a range of visible and invisible mending skills that can be used to repair holes in jumpers, tidy up ragged cuffs, or cover stains including basic darning, Swiss darning, and some 'quick fix' techniques. Materials and hand-sewing equipment will be provided for you to practice with at the workshop but feel free to bring along any old knitwear you would like to work on as well.
Tickets are £15 per person and include a small kit of 4 x needles, a selection of yarns (3 woollen yarns and 2 cotton yarns) and a 'How to Darn' instructional card.
This is all part of the Woodfield Pavilion's Big Green Weekend. Check out www.thewoodfield.org to find what else we're up to over 30th and 31st October
We're also working with Tooting RepairFest, which celebrates and promotes local fixing and mending, launches this week! Full details, including how to book events (and a link to a map of local repair businesses) HERE
