Learn where clothing damage typically comes from and how to anticipate it. We’ll then talk about some basic “rules” of mending, do a quick tour of many different techniques, and take a look at some tools of the trade. There will be a Q\u0026amp;A time at the end of the lecture. This is a great starting point for crafters who don’t want their hands held through every step, but want to be shown where to start.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eClass Time\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSaturday, November 7th\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e from 1:30 - 3 pm at \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Redd on Salmon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e in Portland, OR\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eMaterials \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNone!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eInstructor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElise Webb has spent most of her life in the fiber arts. As a girl she raised goats for 4H, she learned to knit, crochet, weave, and spin, with a focus on the historical. In her adult life she took those skills to work at both a local yarn shop and the Nike fabric library. In 2021 she answered the call of “can anyone fix this sweater?” from yarn store customers and started Village Mending. In a few years it grew from a part time gig to a full time mending service specializing in knitwear but accepting all clothing. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElise takes a restoration mindset to mending.
