Sweater Mending with Needle Felting

Thu, Jan 9 / 6–8 pm

Have a woolen sweater in need of some TLC? Patch it up with your own needle felted applique in this cozy visible mending workshop with fiber artist J Hann. Learn the basics of needle felting and mending as you breathe new life into your clothes. This workshop is also great if you're looking to add some pizzazz to your knitted sweater no matter what shape it's in.

Please bring a woolen or knitted sweater for mending. Synthetic fibers are a bit trickier but can be used.
