Extend the life of well-loved clothes using basic darning techniques! Whether your vintage sweater has a snag or your favorite socks are getting worn out, you’ll learn skills to mend, darn, and patch all sorts of items with ease. Class will start out with a hands-on overview of basic darning before branching out into individual mending projects. Bring in some of your own items in need of mending, and we’ll go over how to fix them together in class. You’ll leave class ready to take on mending projects big and small!
Instructor: Riley Kleve
