The visible mending movement is all about sharing and celebrating acts of repair. In this class you'll learn the traditional skill of darning with a contemporary twist, with Molly Rooke from Darn Good Studio in Exeter.
Use colourful yarns and threads to accentuate and celebrate your mends. Participants will learn how to darn on a knitted sampler, with all materials included.
Skill Level Information: For beginners and / or any skill level, or anyone who wants a refresher on darning.
What is included? You will receive a visible mending starter kit with hoop, needles and a few threads to keep - additional shades of thread, and a swatch of fabric will be provided during the workshop to practice with. You will also receive a complimentary voucher for a beverage from the pop-up MOW café.
What do students need to bring? Please bring along anything you would like advice on mending, otherwise all materials are provided.
