Woodlands Community

A wool mending workshop demonstrating how to fix holes in your knitted garments.  Reduce textile waste and keep your lovely woollens!

Wool Mending: This 90-minute zoom workshop explores textile repair on knitted and wool textiles, some basic ways to put together your favourite knitted items. This workshop is suitable for beginners and more experienced menders alike. Tools Needed: Sewing needle (preferably with a rounded tip), Yarn or thread in similar thickness to that of what you are repairing. You can try and match the colour and thickness of the item, or choose a different colour for a more visible mend. Something rounded to keep underneath such as an apple, a ladle or darning egg/mushroom. And of course, a woollen item to mend. The workshop is run with our partners at Repair Cafe Glasgow as part of Woodlands Community&#x27;s Climate Action Project.
