This workshop focuses on learning six fundamental darning techniques used for visible mending. Participants will be guided step by step through each technique, building a strong foundation in stitching methods that can be applied to a variety of repairs.

Techniques include basket stitch, blanket stitch, dot stitch, star stitch, and other essential variations.

After practicing the stitches, participants will apply their skills to a simple repair on their own knitted items such as beanies, gloves, socks, scarves, sweaters, or cardigans.

No prior sewing experience is required. Please bring an item you would like to repair.
