Visible Mending with Lizzie David

  • The Long Barn Manor Farm Buildings, Southstoke, Bath BA2 7PQ Bath United Kingdom (map)

Join us for a morning of creative darning with visible mender Lizzie David (@little_moth_mends). Lizzie David is a clothes mender living and working in Bath. A fine art graduate who loves textiles and colour, she has been visibly mending knitwear and woven textiles since 2020. She finds mending the antithesis of fast fashion culture, a mindful way of reconnecting with our clothes in a creative and expressive way, and a simple way of reducing our environmental impact on the world. She undertakes mending commissions and shares the joy of darning with others through her in-person workshops in the local community.

Learn how to mend knitwear by hand, using simple woven darning techniques.

Visible mending is a beautiful way to rejuvenate your clothes and reconnect with them, repairing rather than replacing.

Bring along a knitted or woven garment in need of repair. Moth eaten sweaters and holey socks are ideal. All materials will be provided, no experience necessary

Ticket price includes refreshments. NB this workshop is only bookable via Lizzie’s instagram or eventbrite page here
