Darning Workshop

LEARN TO DARN

Darning is a technique that has fallen out of favour in recent years but we’re determined to bring it back through this 2 hr darning workshop designed to help you keep the clothes you already own lasting longer and out of landfill.

It is a great practical skill and relaxing craft we can easily do at home by helping us unwind from the busy lives we lead, whilst also being more conscious of our clothing choices.

During this workshop Madeline Tanoto from @madsdoandmend will teach you about visible and invisible darning of your beloved woollens through practical instruction as well as explore the different tools and materials you can use to keep practicing this skill at home.

All darning materials will be provided for the workshop but you will need to bring a woollen item from home to mend. For example a wool jumper or cardigan with moth holes, or a pair of worn out woolly socks
