MendingA hole in your handknits?! The horror! If you’re like me, the change in the weather has you bringing out the sweaters and socks. Some of those heels and elbows are getting a little threadbare. Luckily, mending can provide us with a wonderful opportunity for creativity. Join Sivia Harding for her excellent class, Mending Your Knits – Saturday, September 10 from 2:00-5:00pm. Learn several options for fixing up your favorite knits while exploring mending methods from around the world.
