Belfast Tool Library Workshop

To Book: https://buytickets.at/belfasttoollibrary/1506214

Visible mending techniques can restore your favourite jumpers and socks, save them from moth nibbles, fraying cuffs and tears, and be an art form in its own right. Join Repair Cafe Belfast's fantastic sewing team to try your hand at darning, inspiration from fabulous projects they've completed (like these by Sue, pictured) and learn how to save your own favourite knits. 

This class is suitable for beginners or those with some experience. Bring a piece of knitwear you want to get started on - samples will also be available. Due to no shows in previous events, there's a small charge to secure your spot and ensure we don't turn people away unnecessarily.  This workshop is heavily subsidised by funding from DAERA’s carrier bag levy. You are very welcome to add a donation to help us reach more people with sewing, mending and upcycling skills.
