Learn how to repair your clothing through the lost art of darning! You know those pieces that you've been meaning to mend? Now is your chance!
This workshop will introduce you to visible mending techniques using a darning loom to effortlessly repair holes, tears, and abrasions in your clothing. We'll walk you through the tools, materials, and solutions using a variety of denim to practice.
A variety of fabric and thread will be provided for practice. We encourage you to bring in your favorite ripped, worn, and snagged knits to repair.
