    NEW FROM OLD: Jumper Cushions

    One DAY WORKSHOP


    SESSION DATES:

    • Sat 15 Feb: 10.30am – 4pm (Cancelled)

    Unlock the value in your wardrobe and be part of the slow fashion revolution.

    The shift towards ‘Fast Fashion’ has caused lots of negative environmental isues, the global textile and clothing industries are one of the largest consumers of water on the planet. ‘To produce just one cotton shirt requires approximately three thousand litres of water’…

    These workshops will help you to develop the skills you need to repair, re-purpose and up-cycle your old garments.


    SESSION 2: Jumper Cushions

    In session 2 of this series Nicola will show you how to turn un-wanted knitwear into statement cushions. Bring along your old jumpers, scarves, cardigans, and leave with something new.
