In September I ran my first in person, weekend long workshop and it was wonderful!
Relaxed learning, plenty of homemade cake, and we all left as friends.
Can’t wait to do more of of these weekends next year

Happy International Repair Day!
This is one of my favourite repairs.
I’m spending the day teaching darning, which feels very appropriate!

This was a moth eaten cardigan that was gifted to me. I’ve been waiting for the right idea for it, and decided these beetles and butterflies were it!
Worked in fine merino for its shine
