Mend your clothes with Darning

When

Sunday 16 August 2026
09:30–11:00

Learn the traditional craft of darning. You will be able to learn this hands-on mending technique for repairing holes, thin patches, and worn spots in fabric using nothing more than a needle and thread. Participants will practise darning directly onto fabric, building up a woven patch that strengthens and restores the material, and leave with the skills to keep giving their favourite clothes a longer life. Under 14s must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
