Learn Honeycomb Darning - Shrewsbury

Learn honeycomb darning - an unfussy visible mending technique, best used to repair knitwear like socks and t-shirts, but can be used on woven fabrics as well. Help keep your clothes lasting longer, saving you money and helping the planet.

We'll work together through the technique on scrap fabric, covering how to mend thinning areas as well as where there's a hole, before getting you set up on repairing your own garment. Bring along a sock, t-shirt, or similar to mend. Smaller damage is easier for just starting out!

All tools and materials are provided (including scraps of fabric to practice the technique), but feel free to bring along any supplies or tools you have. There will be tea and coffee to drink as well as biscuits.

Please note, this class will involve small hand stitching, requiring a certain level of dexterity and close up work. Please bring reading glasses if you need them.

Small class, booking essential.
