Join artist Lorna Johnston in the Drawing Room at Leeds Central Library and learn to patch and repair holes using honeycomb darning. This strong and relatively quick visible mending technique is perfect for darning socks and reinforcing worn areas of clothing and creates an attractive circular pattern. Lorna will guide you in choosing the right tools and materials for each item of clothing and show you step by step how to make a beautiful lasting repair.

Age guidance: 14+.
