Do I need to bring anything?

Yes, it will be really useful if you bring a knitted item that needs repairing or upcycling to get the most out of the session.

I don't know how to sew, can I still come?

Yes, absolutely, this is a beginner level visible mending class, you will be taught all the basics you would need to learn to mend.

What tools will there be?

We will provide scissors, yarn, darning needles, mending mushrooms, scraps of knits to practice on.

Can I bring lunch and eat during the workshop?

Sadly, there wont be much space or time for eating, we designed the timings to be post lunch time, we will provide a glass or Prosecco and mince pies as a snack.
