Join us for a social mending and making evening for textiles at the Velocity café!

We hope to run these mending circles regularly to create an open, sociable and informal space where you can do your mending (as well as other creative projects like knitting and crocheting if you wish!). Bring along your garment(s), materials and equipment.

Beginners are welcome and please note that this is a social mending circle but not a formal taught workshop. It is a chance to learn from each other, have a blether and enjoy doing some visible mending! We will have small range of materials but encourage everyone to bring their own supplies.

Materials and equipment we would encourage you to bring: darning & embroidery wool, embroidery rings, fabric bits for patches, mending mushrooms, fabric markers, thimbles, crewel and darning needles, magnifiers, sewing lamps, etc.

A hot drink of your choice will be provided between 6.30-7pm.

There are limited spaces for the session so please only book if you are able to attend. This event is supported by funding provided by the Highland Community Waste Partnership.

NB: One requirement of the funding is that we collect feedback from participants about the event. You will be asked to fill out a feedback form at the end of the session.

Photography: We will also take photographs during the session for sharing on social media and reporting purposes. By signing up, you are giving consent to having your photo taken. If you are not comfortable having your photograph taken, please let us know.

Attendance & cancellation policy: Please only book a ticket if you know you are able to attend. If your plans change, you must cancel your ticket and let us know with at least 48 hours notice of the event start time so that others can attend.
