This is a fun activity in Camberwell, London

Dates;
Saturday 24th May 12:00-13:30
Saturday 14th June 12:00-13:30

Join us for a delightful sewing taster workshop where you will learn the art of darning and how to repair your favourite garments with love and care. In this welcoming and supportive class, you will discover the beauty of extending the life of your clothing through simple yet valuable techniques.

During the workshop, you will be guided through step-by-step instructions on how to darn a hole in a knitted garment, either with a free darn technique or using a darning loom. Depending on your previous sewing experience, you may wish to start with a smaller hole and build your confidence for bigger challenges.

We will provide all the necessary materials and tools needed, making this an accessible and enjoyable activity for everyone. The Remakery aims to be a natural fibre-only craft venue, due to our circularity goals, so all yarns will be 100% wool. We have a wide selection of Yorkshire spinners wool, but can't guarantee every colour, please bring yarn if you want a particular shade.

You'll leave the workshop feeling empowered and inspired to tackle future garment repairs with ease.

Selena was a fantastic teacher, really good at taking the time to explain everything- I really enjoyed the class. We were taught two types of stitches, and I got to fix my jumper! Thank you Selena for a fantastic class!

The teacher gave clear and useful instructions and was experienced. We focused on one technique, darning by creating a woven patch to reinforce the worn area or the hole. We worked with what we had and received specific advice to repair that item as well as being able to use materials and tools that she had available. I now feel able to do a much better job with my holes on my knitted clothes. The atmosphere was relaxed and chatty , I enjoyed meeting the other participants
