Mending Circle
About
Bring clothes that need repair to this mending and darning session in the library Makerspace, where supplies are provided and a different technique is demonstrated each time. It runs 11am–1pm Thursday at the Bellevue Library, 1111 110th Ave NE (Bellevue Downtown Station on the 2 Line), and is free. The same Makerspace hosts a sublimation printing demo the day before.
Good to know

New to textiles?
Textile classes range from weaving on a frame or rigid-heddle loom to embroidery, knitting, crochet, natural dyeing, felting and sewing a first garment.
- Check whether the class is for complete beginners or assumes you can already cast on or thread a machine.
- Single sessions usually make something small: a wall hanging, a hoop, a dyed scarf.
- Bring reading glasses if you use them; most fibre work is close-up.
Taking it home: Usually the same day. Larger pieces may be finished at home with the yarn or thread you leave with.
