Learn how to do this beautiful knitwear mending technique and then have a go with your own garments! Beginners welcome.

The first part of the evening (6 - 7.30pm) will be a taught workshop where a practice swatch will be provided for you to practice on. You are then welcome to have a go mending and repairing your own garment(s) for the rest of the evening.

You may wish to have a look at the swiss darning technique online here to familiarise yourself and get an idea of whats involved before the workshop.

If you would prefer to just come along and use the whole evening for doing your mending (as well as other creative projects like knitting and crocheting) that it totally fine! Please book the other ticket type and bring along your garment(s), materials and equipment.

It would be great if participants could bring any materials they have as well as a lamp as we still have limited light available in the café at this time of year. Feel free to bring a cushion if you wish too as it may be more comfortable for sitting on the chairs and benches in the café.

A hot drink of your choice will be provided between 6 - 6.30pm.

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.
